Learning Assessment

This sequel to John Hattie's Visible Learning includes more than double the research, and expands on Hattie's model of teaching and learning based on evidence of impact.

The Learning Progression Model (LPM) offers a flexible and effective framework focusing on improvement over time, emphasizes learning as a process rather than an endpoint, encourages academic risk-taking, and fosters positive student-teacher relationships. This model defines outcomes based on a limited number of skills, provides ample opportunities for formative assessment, and allows multiple attempts without penalty. The LPM also removes nonacademic factors from grading and uses descriptive scoring to decrease attempts to quantify performances.
