(Crear una evaluación formativa para el uso diario y obtener, s.f.)

1.       1. Description of the class

The teacher recalled the differences between assessment and evaluation, but also she emphasized on promoting formative assesment, that consists in a way of form and train students and the one which do not  focus in the memoration skills of students because they need a new kind of teaching in which their learning would be a process. Then, we had to discuss in pairs about assessment (types, subject and objective assessmente and the responsability of it). Then, we had to explain how evaluate creative in students, for example making a proyect or writing a story, so the most common intrument to control the evaluation is a rubric with different descriptors. Finally, the teacher showed us the European Language Portfolio for Primary Education and some proyects that she has done like virtual exchanges.

2.       2. Describe what you learn in the class

In this class I learned that a good teacher should be objective when it comes to valuing a student´s work, since there are times when teachers usually evaluate subjectively, classifying students unfairly. For this reason, in the process of evaluation, the teacher must have more teachers in the evaluation, the student, the relatives and the authorities.

On the other hand, the teacher showed us a Portfolio, an instrument that motivate student in the process of learning english.

3.     3.   Opinion about the class

This sesion was very useful to learn more about the types of evaluation and the importance of the rubric to be more precise in the evaluation process. A different form to include more global activities with checklist.
