Exploring the Effectiveness of Formative Assessment in Enhancing College Students’ Sense of Gain in Ideological and Political Courses

Fair and objective assessment is a critical factor in improving college students’ sense of gain from ideological and political courses. A formative assessment approach to these courses, underpinned by modern information technology, can effectively enhance student satisfaction when it entails thorough preparation prior to instruction, timely feedback and supervision during the teaching process, and equitable and just evaluation outcomes. Addressing the current reality of large class sizes in ideological and political courses in universities, this study advocates for the establishment of evaluation criteria that adhere to the principles of education and teaching, while actively engaging students as the primary agents of learning. By combining the leading role of instructors with the functional advantages of mobile network teaching platforms, a more impactful and satisfactory learning experience can be achieved.
