Unit Five Reflection
When we let students
to self-assess their activities we are assigning them a huge work because their
performance in class would be reflected in how mature they are giving
themselves a grade. What we have understood in this unit is to create
instruments so that students can self-assess their performance and at the same
time we can have in mind the advantages and disadvantages that self-assessment
represent to our students. The results can depend in how much do we know our
students and in how sincere we think they are, because giving yourself a grade
has a significant value when it comes to
giving a grade to students.
We have learned that we must prepare our students we must prepare our students so that they know what the self-evaluation process is like, the meaning it has and the instruments that are going to be used.

Hello Mónica and Ana,
ResponderBorrarThank you for your reflection. There are certain conditions to be able to use self-assessment in a language class. First, as you well-said, students must be trained to be able to carry out self-assess. They also have to live certain values, which we can encourage during our classes. We must design instruments that help students self-assess their performance and we must also know what we want the students to self-assess, is it their process of learning?, is it their knowledge?, is it the development of skills? , what?. We need to incorporate it to our course plan so that it is part of the assessment procedures since the beginning of our courses. Thank you.
I want to congratulate you for the great job you did during the course. I also want to tell you that you got all the points for this portfolio since you included all assignments and all reflection. Thank you!
