Explanation
The components of ipsative, learning-oriented assessment are self and peer assessment, sharing learning goals, effective questioning and effective feedback.
Self and peer assessment engage learners in appraising their own and each other's progress.
Sharing learning goals makes the targets of improvement clear to every student.
Effective questioning probes understanding and prompts deeper thinking.
Effective feedback tells the learner how to move forward from where they are.
Discriminating between pupils is not a component, since ipsative assessment compares a learner only with their own past.
