Student Feedback
Student Feedback
In the middle of our unit, students took a quiz based on the first half of the chapter. I plan
to provide feedback on this summative assessment when I grade the quiz. I will mark the
questions they got wrong and mark the correct answer as well. I will also add notes as needed of
how to get to the right answer and/or the concept that explains the correct answer. I expect
students to look at their quizzes, understand why they got a problem wrong and use it as a
resource to study for the next test. I hope to see them read what I wrote and have a better idea of
the concepts that they were confused about. The next topics in our unit build upon the knowledge
they needed for this quiz and we have been repeating steps of finding the axis of symmetry,
domain/range, min/max, etc. so I will not be going over every problem in the quiz. Especially
because I will be providing explanations on each individual paper. However, I will be going over
the extra credit problem, suggested by Ms. Olsen so that students will have a better
understanding of the topic in the context of a word problem. I will pass out the quizzes to each
student, all faced down for privacy.
When grading the papers, I added simple graphs and explanations. I also directed
students to the foldable that we did together because it has all the steps of how to find the vertex
and axis of symmetry. I gave partial points based on their work and tried to help them see where
their mistake was. Some had the wrong formula and others had a mathematical error. I also
added smiley faces when they got a whole section correct and also for every score above an 80.
Ms. Olsen also has a policy where if students get below a 50, they automatically just get a 50.
We also added extra credit from the AIMs assignment and for every 10% they got correct, they
were given an extra point. With the extra credit, the class average was about 80%.
I got a lot of information from the assessment. I understood from my side, what I needed
to emphasize and the specific language that I should use. During the quiz, many students were
asking me what the zeros meant. I usually reference them as x-intercepts and noted that I should
change that in my lessons and explain that they are the same thing. I also have a better idea of
how the students are doing as well and who understands the concepts and who needs a little more
help. Most students performed expected and I had a few that surprised me (both in a good and
bad way). I could see the misconceptions that students had and it gave me a better idea of how to
move forward.
I believe that this feedback will show the students to be more careful in their work and
that they will be more responsible for their own learning. So many students lost points for not
p tting = for a is of s mmetr , e en tho gh it has been emphasized many times in class. This
feedback will also, hopefully, show the students that I care about their work and is putting in the
time to write explanations and is willing to provide help. The biggest thing is that I hope that
students will use this quiz as a resource and have a better understanding of how to graph and the
qualities of a parabola. After the quiz, I had a much better response on finding the min/max and
domain/range and the zeros. Because they missed it and I wrote why they missed it, I think that
they remember it more.
Overall, I tried my best to provide as much feedback as possible while still trying to keep
it short and simple. I directed them to using a resource we all did together in class and also
redefined some terms that they had trouble with. I think that the pictures helped them and the
feedback gave each student an individual assessment.
