• Hattie (2003)† shows that our most effective teachers (in terms of improving the learning outcomes of students) constantly use diagnostic information (Feedback) to inform their teaching.
Hattie (2009)* shows that using feedback (i.e. using diagnostic information about what each student can and can’t do to inform teaching) has one of the biggest impacts on improving student learning outcomes.
