One of the most important tips in my opinion relates to making assessment a motivator for students. It must motivate students to not only work hard in the last few weeks before a task is due, but throughout the entire process. A good form of assessment encourages students to be self motivated and check their progress routinely, encouraging real, student-directed and progressive learning. This follows on to the tip relating to assessment being incremental. In order to encourage student motivation and to ensure students know where they are at, assessment should be incremental and regular, as well as the standard overall mark at the end of a unit or assessment task.
