Peer and Self-Assessment in High Schools

---

Abstract

Formative assessment is recognized as an important component of teacher's classroom assessment strategies; recent research has pointed to peer and self-assessment as a way to operationalize the principles of formative assessment. The purpose of this study was to explore the nature and frequency of high school teacher's use of peer and self-assessment. The results indicate that many teachers find peer and self-assessment useful and that there is potential for greater classroom applicability but that more research is needed to guide wide spread use of these assessment strategies.
