Self-assessment

modified Dec 14th, 2006

Self assessment types of assignments are provided for quick student feedback. Self assessments:

  • help the learner check if they have mastered a topic
  • provide opportunity to measure learning progress
  • are usually voluntary and may allow multiple attempts
  • inform the learner, but not the teacher
  • can occur whenever a performance activity is linked with feedback about that performance.

Self assessment examples:

  • practice quizzes
  • games, simulations, and other interactive exercises
  • practice written assignments
  • peer reviews
  • true-false questions
