  Case: Teacher Feedback
For years, Mrs. Marsh has just put a grade on an assignment and never provided the student with any feedback. The students always ask a ton of questions about their grade. Mrs. Marsh knows she needs to give feedback, but she doesn't know where to start. What would you recommend? What strategies should she implement?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
For the next assignment Mrs. Marsh should assign the project work; provide three examples of what she is looking for, and thoroughly go over each example, preferably out loud and up close on the Smart Board. Being sure to offer feedback on why example 1 does not meet the requirements of the assignment, example 2 meets the standards required by the assignment, and example 3 is an exemplar representation of the expectations of the assignment. In essence the teacher is building up to an assignment rubric, but answering all the students questions prior to the assignment will save the teacher a lot of individual student conferences, or questions. Being pro-active in teaching rubrics is the key when the students are not used to or have never used them prior to this assignment. Finally, when the student believes there assignment is ready for submission, have the students rate their own work with the very rubric the teacher will use. The teacher will complete the same rubric on the assignment writing specific feedback for each rubric score offering immediate feedback.
