Alternative forms of assessment
Alternative forms of assessment
DELPHI Module 13, section 13.3, deals in detail with the question of alternative assessments, looking at self-, peer- and computer-aided assessment. We have already seen in section 6.5.4 that speaking tests devised for use on computer may not be possible. Peer assessment may work particularly well with class-based oral work, and using both this and self-assessment are a useful way of getting students to understand and 'own' the marking scheme.
Activity 11
| Design a questionnaire that can be used for self-assessment with one of your oral classes. What sort of questions might be used? Try it out if possible and discuss it with your students. You may wish to read DELPHI section 13.3.1 first for ideas. |
