Is designed to assist teachers and students
Is designed for those not directly involved in daily learning and teaching
Is used in conversation about learning Is presented in a formal report
Usually detailed, specific and descriptive feedback in words (instead of numbers,
scores and grades)
Usually gathers information into easily digestible numbers, scores and grades
Usually focused on improvement, compared with the student's 'previous best' and progress toward a standard
Usually compares the student's learning with either other students or the 'standard'
for a grade level
Needs to involve the student -- the person most able to improve learning Does not need to involve the student
