Concepts and definitions of themes 7 and 8
Theme 7: Standards perspective on the formative and summative language assessment
Formative Assessment
It is a two-way feedback loop between student and teacher on the teaching and learning of the course to improve the achievement of instructional outcomes.
Principles
Assessment for learning
Students are able to note their progress.
Promote motivation and self-esteem of students.
Assessment as learning
Create opportunities within the classroom.
Allow students to develop independence and autonomy.
Promote debates and dialogues as opportunities for peer participation.
Techniques and Strategies
Formative assessment techniques are much more rewarding for students.
They allow them to participate in the decision-making process.
It can be implemented during teaching.
They can be formal or informal.
Target-setting
They take charge of their own learning.
Responsibility in the management and fulfillment of objectives.
Sharing learning objectives
Achieve milestones and learning skills, between teacher and student.
Structuring lesson introductions
The teacher must provide an appropriate order to teach the lesson.
Impact on Students Learning
Formative evaluation is presented as an effective and lasting way of evaluating.
Students and teachers are actively involved in the learning process.
Summative Assessment
Determines the student's overall achievement in a specific area of learning.
It is based on student performance on a numerical basis.
Theme 8: Validity and reliabity
Validity
Measures what it is supposed to measure.
Seeks to cover as much of the assessable material as practicable.
Content-Related Evidence
The skill or knowledge provided in a course should be evaluated in an appropriate way.
Achievements should be defined before measuring them.
Criterion-Related Evidence
An assessment has criterion validity when its results match the criterion measures equally well.
Construct-Related Evidence
Refers to the degree of knowledge and skills to be measured.
Consequential Validity
Underlies the consequences derived in evaluation practices, for example:
Accuracy and measurement of criteria.
Impact on student readiness.
Principles
Determining student success at a given point in time
Establish eligibility for study programs
Practicality
Resources are adequate to make it accessible.
The evaluation process is efficient in terms of time and cost
Reliability
It must be consistent by not applying it to the same student.
Trustworthy as long as there are no problems with the students.
Validity
They must conform to the lines of adequacy, meaning and usefulness.
Authenticity
It lies in the tasks presented in the test in relation to the real world.
Techniques and Strategies
Product-assessments
The knowledge indicators must be adequate to the real world.
Performance-assessments
The scenarios that teachers observe must be real.
Process-focused assessments
Prioritize the ingenuity of the student.
Impact on Students learning
Summative assessment increases student's motivation to keep trying.
They develop bases related to metacognition.
Reliability
A test is reliable as long as it is consistent.
A measurement is considered reliable if it gives the same result over and over again.
Student-Related Reliability
An assessment cannot be reliable because of student inconsistencies.
These inconsistencies affect the truth value of a score.
Rater Reliability
Refers to the consistent scores obtained by the evaluators in different situations.
Subjectivity or human error can affect the scoring process.
Inter-Rater Reliability
The presence of personal biases such as experience influences the scores obtained.
Intra-Rater Reliability
Only one evaluator is responsible for scoring the same data.
This aspect can cause evaluator fatigue.
Test Administration Reliability
It focuses on the resources and the environment in which the test will be applied.
Test Reliability
The test design must be error free.
The time allocated to the test must be adequate.
