Student Success Week Keynote Address: The State of Feedback Under the Common Core

Feedback. It is central to all learning, whether by young students or veteran teachers. With all the understandable focus on (and angst about) the Common Core Standards, it is vital to remind ourselves that high Standards in any field are never met the first time. Thus, the quality of the feedback (and the opportunities to use it) become a central feature of effective instruction and improved learning.

Grant Wiggins will explain what true feedback is and isn’t, and how to ensure that students get more of it – without sacrificing achievement.
