Abstract: This study focuses on ways to improve assessment and feedback in the educational context. Assessment and feedback are critical elements of the learning process and have a significant impact on student performance. The study aims to identify directions and best practices to support the improvement of feedback and assessment in the educational context. The study examines various bibliographic sources to identify constructive and effective approaches to providing negative feedback and ways to improve the evaluation process. In order to carry out this research, we considered the systematic analysis of the specialized literature. Thus, the Google Academic search engine was queried regarding “assessment in the learning process†and “feedback in the learning process†from the period 1980-2023. We obtained 70100 results for “assessment in the learning process†and 445000 results for “feedback in the learning process†. We finally selected 29 articles to fit our study. The results indicate that feedback and assessment can be improved by adopting a constructive approach, as well as by using educational technologies and diverse assessment methods. This study has important implications for teachers and educators who wish to improve student learning and performance by providing more effective and constructive feedback and assessment.
