Portfolio module 4

The evaluation process is one of the main aspects that come into play in the process of teaching and learning. We have many ways to assess our students as well as assess ourselves.

In the formative assessment is collected different kind of information on how students face the proposed activities; thus, you can see the student needs that arise, how are they taking the learning process, etc., so we can re-plan activities to meet the new needs that are arising.

From my point of view, the main features of the formative evaluation are:

-Get Evidence on how the teaching-learning process is been developing.

-Design action plans to redress errors, review or strengthen any weaknesses found, assign extra activities and program individualized attention to students as needed.

On the other hand, we have the summative assessment whose purpose is to determine the degree of achievement of learning objectives by students at the end of each learning period.

In my opinion, both kinds of assessments are compatible.

The fact that the "summative evaluation" is conducted at the end of an educational period to reach a final decision on the student's progress involves using the results collected over the course with the instruments of the "formative evaluation" as for example: self-assessment questionnaires, grills peer assessment, observation sheets, daily shared student-teacher, etc.

Here you have some resources related to assessment, hope they are useful somehow!
