Formative assessment and the intuitive incorporation of research-based instruction techniques
Kuiper, Paula
Formative assessment and the intuitive incorporation of research-based instruction techniques created by Paula Kuiper, Rachel VanOeffelen, Simon Veldkamp, Isaac Bokma, Luke Breems - Journal on excellence in college teaching Volume 26 , number 2, .
Using Max Weber's theory of ideal types, the authors classify the formative assessment techniques used by 12 college instructors. Their data reveal two pairs of opposing preferences: (1) highly preplanned vs. highly emergent and (2) focused on individual students vs. focused on the class as a whole. Using interview data, they illustrate how each type of instructor adopts practices consistent with research-based pedagogy, even while he or she may be unaware of the research base. The resulting composite case studies may serve as a reflection tool for instructors and professional developers pursuing proven formative assessment strategies.
