Case: Valuing self -assessment
Valuing self -assessment
Mrs. Lee loves using self-assessments, however, one frequent difficulty with self-assessment, when it is not really a meaningful part of learning, is that it can become repetitive and routine:‘Oh, here we go again, it's the self-assessment sheet that we do at the end of every piece of work'. She wants her students to get something out of the process for it to be valued by them. If they see self-assessment as something they are doing for the teacher, not for themselves, then it will not have any impact on how they think of themselves as learners.
What can Mrs. Lee do to make students value self assessment?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
At my last school, we implemented an activity for student self-assessment. It was a table, which included rows for each individual problem on the assessment. For each row, students were to record whether or not they answered that individual question correctly or incorrectly. This gave them a sense for how they did overall; for those tests that were organized by concept, they were able to see which concepts were their strongest and which were their weakest. Furthermore, for questions answered incorrectly, students were to check one of three boxes: "Calculation error", "Didn't study", or "I don't know what I did wrong." This way, they were honest with themselves and with me on the reasoning for their error and held all parties accountable for working towards fixing their mistakes. Students found that doing this after every major assessment (either formative or summative) helped them better prepare for upcoming tests and/or make-up tests that covered the same material! |

| Comments: This is a great idea! I like how it is set up so that students must be honest in their assessments. Giving them choices as to why they missed each concept requires them to choose a specific answer versus you asking them why they missed it. In this case, the student would also respond with something like "I don't know" or "I looked at it wrong". These are my common responses with self-assessments. |

| Comments: I like that they had to explain why they answered incorrectly for a specific problem. This helps with learning to be responsible for one's actions and/or learning as well as helping the teacher to know what they can help with. |
