Communication in the Classroom: A Study of the Role of Assessment in Motivation.
Broadfoot, Patricia M.
Educational Review, v31 n1 p3-10 Feb 1979
This paper argues that the one-sided nature of assessment alienates pupils, especially the less able. Although largely a theoretical analysis, it presents some findings from a preliminary study set up to examine the motivational effects of pupil self-assessment. (Author/SJL)
