The impact of formative assessment on pupil academic achievement: An empirical study of the effects of a formative assessment practices program that was co-designed in a teacher community
Background
The empirical evidence-base for effects of formative assessment on pupil academic achievement is inconclusive, despite its potential claim to improve teaching and learning. Contemporary views conceptualize formative assessment as a unified practice of integrated strategies. However, studies that investigated the effects of formative assessment on pupil academic achievement in primary education focused on separate components with different methods.
Aims
This study investigates whether a co-designed program of unified formative assessment strategies affects pupil academic achievement.
Sample
Participants were 976 Dutch elementary school pupils (10–11 years).
Methods
A quasi-experimental pretest/posttest research design was used with a pre-established intervention and control group. The intervention group consisted of all pupils who were taught by elementary school teachers that participated in a teacher co-designed formative assessment program. Teachers belonging to the control group did not partake in the co-design. Standardized mathematics test scores were used to investigate whether the co-designed formative assessment practices program had an effect on pupil learning achievement using multilevel modelling.
Results
After controlling for pre-intervention gain, and school-specific pupil population complexity, the pupils of teachers that participated in the formative assessment co-design did not significantly outperform the pupils in the control group. The multilevel analysis also revealed non-significant effects of the interaction between the formative assessment intervention and performance levels on mathematical gain.
Conclusions
This study provides valuable insights in the challenges that lie in both implementing (effective) formative assessment practices and investigating the effectiveness of a teacher community co-designed formative assessment practices program on pupil academic results.
期刊介绍:
As an international, multi-disciplinary, peer-refereed journal, Learning and Instruction provides a platform for the publication of the most advanced scientific research in the areas of learning, development, instruction and teaching. The journal welcomes original empirical investigations. The papers may represent a variety of theoretical perspectives and different methodological approaches. They may refer to any age level, from infants to adults and to a diversity of learning and instructional settings, from laboratory experiments to field studies. The major criteria in the review and the selection process concern the significance of the contribution to the area of learning and instruction, and the rigor of the study.
