Description
This study used a convergent, parallel, mixed methods design to examine secondary math students’ perspectives of classroom assessments. Converging both quantitative (student surveys) and qualitative (focus groups and interviews) data strands offered a more complete perspective of what classroom assessment strategy students preferred. Students heavily preferred a strategy named the “Dan Meyer” strategy for both tests and quizzes. Major qualitative themes emerged to support the disparity in views between both classroom assessment strategies found in this study. Since major differences existed between students on the classroom assessment strategies, further research is suggested to examine the views of secondary math students and which classroom assessment strategies help them learn.
