Stiggins (2002) research from two decades ago, still applies… “In short, the effect of assessment for learning, as it plays out in the classroom, is that students keep learning and remain confident that they can continue to learn at productive levels if they keep trying to learn. In other words, students don’t give up in frustration or hopelessness” (p. 761).
