dc.description.abstractThis paper discusses formative or developmental evaluation whose results, when used as feedback mechanism, would lead to improvement of students’ academic performance at the secondary school level. Two questions were asked on the use and influence of feedback mechanism on students academic. performance. A ten-tern checklist was used to find answers to the questions, while 20 teachers were interviewed on the subject of the investigation. The data were collected from continuous assessment as well as the Senior School Certificate Examination result of two sessions (1999-2001). The data were analysed using frequency counts and using percentages. Correlation statistic was also used to answer the hypothesis so postulated for the purpose of the study. The performance in economics by students was found to have improved appreciably. Some recommendations were made for effective use of feedback mechanism for better results in secondary schools. They include adequate funding the encouragement of frequent use of formative evaluation to provide feedback on students’ performance; it was also recommended that organization of seminars on formative evaluation and feedback for teachers among others be undertaken at regular intervals.en_US
