Oral assessments: improved in grades and retention

We have all heard it said that, ���You really don���t understand something until you teach it.��� We know that is because teaching forces us to clarify ideas and learn to explain them well. Research shows that mathematical discourse is a key to deep understanding. Oral assessments help students to articulate their understanding of basic concepts and help them to self assess. I will share the results of on research study that examined the effect of oral assessments and reform teaching on a class of at-risk Calculus I students.
