The book develops a broader understanding of the impact and reasons for AfL in order to help teachers become outstanding teachers whilst their pupils also become outstanding learners. Emphasis is placed on helping pupils become autonomous and reflective learners in order that they don't become passive receivers in the learning process. Central to this is the development of strategies for ensuring progress in lessons is being maintained by all learners...Ultimately by using the assessment for learning strategies within this book you will sharpen your teaching, increase pupil autonomy and ownership and ensure rapid and sustained progress in learning is taking place... Assessment for learning is about better teaching and learning techniques yet such practices are still largely misunderstood even though the impact upon learners can be significant.

Questioning and Dialogue . Using Feedback to monitor progress in learning . Improving Teaching through focusing on AfL . Increasing pupil ownership and autonomy in assessment
