Have fair assessments. Whether you're giving a quiz or a final exam, it's important to make sure the assignment is fair and useful for your students. They will be better students after all of your hard work, and will thank you for being an understanding teacher and classroom leader.
o Have a study guide. Before an exam, tell your students what they can expect to be on it so they don't have any surprises on the day of the test.
o Provide sample problems. Give your students practice problems so their skills are sharp on the day of the test.
