Using Self-Assessments in Elementary Classrooms
Bingham, Gary; Holbrook, Teri; Meyers, Laura E.
Phi Delta Kappan, v91 n5 p59-62 Feb 2010
Self-assessments can play a powerful role in developing a child's motivation and achievement. Self-assessments require students to think carefully about what they have learned and how they learn and to develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Students who engage in the productive practice of self-assessment, inevitably strengthen their own learning and development.
