The so-called formative assessment refers to a comprehensive assessment of learners' learning process, a phased assessment of learners' learning achievements and a phased test of learners' learning goals, which is an important part of curriculum evaluation.
The evaluation of formative assessment results is the quality control of learning process. To establish and improve an effective control system, we must first establish scientific and reasonable evaluation principles. These principles are not only the basis for the control of formative assessment results, but also the yardstick for the teaching management department to evaluate the effectiveness of the control system, and the standard for judging the authenticity and authority of formative assessment results.
(1) purposeful and formative assessment is an important part of curriculum assessment, which aims to ensure the timely completion of the teaching process in open education, and the assessment of assessment results is one of the powerful means to achieve this goal. Therefore, the completion of formative assessment should be linked to the passing of the final exam of the course, that is, those who do not participate in formative assessment or those who fail formative assessment (70 points is the passing line). Can't take the current final exam of this course. Only this mandatory regulation can ensure that the teaching process of open education is not "empty", that the teaching quality of open education and the implementation of quality education requirements can be guaranteed, and that exam-oriented teaching that only studies for exams, concentrates time and energy at the end of the period and "reviews all at once" can be avoided.
(2) Holistic and formative evaluation is a comprehensive evaluation of learners' learning process, and its contents and achievements should reflect the characteristics of open education and meet the requirements of quality education. Therefore, its content should be composed of homework (big homework, usual homework), autonomous learning, discussion and group activities to fully reflect its learning process, and its weight in formative assessment results is 60% and 20% respectively.
(3) Compliance, formative assessment is a phased test of learners' learning objectives, and its content must have a standard to meet compliance, such as the completion rate of homework 100%, the implementation rate of autonomous learning plan above 80%, the participation rate of discussion above 90%, and the participation rate of group activities above 90%. The above main indicators can be subdivided again according to their contents to comprehensively determine the compliance rate.
(4) timeliness, formative assessment is a phased assessment of learners' academic performance, and the timeliness of the completion of formative assessment must be emphasized. The head teacher and the classroom teacher must have a timetable for the completion of the formative assessment according to the teaching process. Students should complete the corresponding learning process and learning content within a limited time, and those who exceed the limit will be punished. For example, for normal operation, the calculation of completing the operation in normal time is100%; More than 1 week, only 70% of the corresponding results; More than two weeks, only 50% of the corresponding results; If you exceed the limited time by four weeks, the grade of this assignment will be counted as zero. Those who fail to complete their homework at ordinary times (the passing line is 70 points) will be disqualified from the course examination. The time limit for other formative assessments will be analogized.
(5) Authenticity is the life of formative evaluation work and achievements, and a strict review system must be formulated. For example, homework must be done in the homework materials or special homework books issued by superiors, and students are not allowed to print or copy separately. The name, student number, grade, major, subject, number of assignments and the time of handing in assignments must be indicated on the assignment label paper; People on business trips or foreign students can submit them by email or mail. Self-study, there must be pre-school plans, school completion records and after-school supervision, signed by the team leader and deputy team leader. Discussions and group activities can be used as a basis to measure their authenticity according to the detail of their records.
(6) The design of innovative and formative assessment contents should also reflect the requirements and characteristics of quality education. When determining the assessment results, students who creatively answer questions, analyze problems and study and solve problems are rewarded to encourage students' initiative and creativity, stimulate students' learning potential and improve their learning enthusiasm. Schools should set up corresponding incentive funds.
