Assessment results and receipt of useful feedback are a large part of what drive student success in any learning environment. If a student doesn’t know what they need to improve, or where their understanding of a topic or skill contains errors, it is impossible for them to adjust and improve their performance. Effective assessment strategies are particularly important for keeping students on track in an online learning environment.
