Excellent video Sandy! Thanks for sharing! I just want to add that it is essential to clarify some of the fundamental principles and issues which need to be applied to the design of any assessment strategies. Authentic and wash back are also essential in the criteria of assessment. Authentic, if the language in the test has contextualized and natural if the situations are interesting and enjoyable and very important if the task are real-world task. Wash back are the effect of the test have on instruction terms of how students prepare for the test. The challenge of teachers is to create classroom test that serve as learning devices through which wash back has achieved.

ReplyDeleteNice picture to summarize what summative and formative assessment are. I do believe that when you give only grades and numbers, the concept of learning starts to lose its value. Since, numbers only create a competitive environment and label students as better or worse than others. When we do formative assessment, students learning process increase and not only as individuals but as a part of a class, where they can help each other to improve.
