I think in the importance of the formative asessment, it' very useful, but onece a month i propose a sommative proof, that i tryt to build thinking also to competence. What it' very difficult to do is teach the self.assessment in my opinion: here the student could make his difference!

# data[].attributes.body
I agree

# data[].attributes.body
I totally agree.
Approaches to asessement should be aligned to the new learning process.

# data[].attributes.body
Fully agree!

# data[].attributes.body
approaches to assessment should be aligned to the new learning process that the pupils ask aloud

# data[].attributes.body
Student self-assessment, portfolios and e-assessments are important tools to turn students into self-reflective and self-regulative livelong learners.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree. Self-assessment lets our students be more self-confident about their  education and learning process. In this way they are constantly involved in the process of thinking and discussing on their own work so that they can become more aware and responsible of it.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm agree about feedback, tracking tools and portfolios : They can help teachers and students to improve important skills of Key competences.  These skills are important for personal development, and for learningto-learn.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the 'correct" assessment process in the 21st century will be radically different than the one we have been used to in the past

# data[].attributes.body
I think assessment empowers knowledge and give students a new way to learn and taking their responsability.

# data[].attributes.body
I 'm definitely agree. Self-assessment empowers students giving them a leading role in their  education and learnig process.Therefore by engaging them in the process of thinking about and assessing their own work, they act on the evidence of their learning and take responsability of it.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree. Assesment must change.

# data[].attributes.body
The problem of the evaluation is a very important issue because it should cover the entire school structure as a whole. It can not in fact be assessed for competence during the learning process and then the final assessment of the end of cycle exams is summative and traditional character, so in this case the students are evaluated differently than the path that was taken.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm definitely agree with her and everything she tells us about the competence based assesment.

# data[].attributes.body
evaluation is the most tricky part, and the system and parents are not going to be very pleased! this is a little bit hard , but still they need a final sommative classic assessment .

# data[].attributes.body
i agree with
Rosa Linda, /Italy/

,,I think that a personal portfolio , to focus on transversal competences of learners and teachers is something every school should promote''

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the self-assessment is the skill more interesting. Formative assessments are good ways to value stedents' creativity and learning level .

# data[].attributes.body
it is true that the examination of the state of Italian high school is structured so old so if you can carry on an innovative teaching skills for the first 4 years must converge on the need to address the state examination in the fifth year. in this sense only a few small steps have been taken to make such as oriented math test to problems than to the exercises. there is much to think about and do

# data[].attributes.body
Hi! I teach 11 to 13 year-old students. This year our headteacher obtained funds to buy the new so called PON class which is very similar to the one in Finland. Fun enough the school was damaged by the earthquake so we couldn't use it. We moved at another school and she still wants us to use an overhead projector, tablets for us and the students, whatsupp (between teachers), mini-routers. For all that I think that we really need a more modern and welcoming environment, and headteachers must really want things to change and encourage us to do courses to understand the value of teaching in a different way.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree and I think we really need to change assessments but it's difficult when students need the exams to access university

# data[].attributes.body
I am completly agree with this necesary change. In Spain, teacher try to innovate but curricula is the same as 20 years ago. You try to teach tranversaly but the informs  are differents, esthathical.
Learning to learn it's not always pass the exams or do the homeworks. Learning to learn is make our students competents in differents skills and abilities. Prepare them to real word, changing word.

# data[].attributes.body
Well, for me, that's the more difficult issue in this education "new vision". Fortunately, i teach music and drama and so, I evaluate and classify my students based in observations. But I'm constantly asked to use more formal evaluation ways

# data[].attributes.body
The summative assessment is a classification of students, the importance of a formative assessment is the valutation of a "learning journey"

# data[].attributes.body
I believe it is necessary to modify the teaching and the educational aspects which aims to students. So that it is expendable in the world today.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the 'correct" assessment process in the 21st century will be radically different than the one we have been used to in the past. Project based learning and tailored lesson plans for different students are things that were not traditionally used in the classroom, but have proven to get more students engaged in the learning process and enjoy what they are discovering. This goes to show that perhaps the process of learning itself should be the criteria in which we assess our students rather than ticking predetermined boxes that don't always accurately reflect the efforts of the students.

# data[].attributes.body
An objective quite well implemented in Romanian education is evaluation.
It is based increasingly more on summative assessments, formative and especially peer feedback both at classroom and in the teaching of teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
Formative and Summative assessment are inevitable part in teaching and learning process.The students need to take feedback to be able to accomplish the task correctly and correct the mistakes immediately.Moreover, we need to see their own final product to determine their ideas and evalulate whether we can be a guidance and motivator.Both of them are effective and necessary to develop our teaching methodology and observe the impact of 21 st competence in our classes

# data[].attributes.body
Key competences are interdisciplinary thing. Assessing them is a little hard I think because traditional evaluations are not enough anymore… But as Janet Looney mentioned; classroom discussions, observations, peer revives, self-assessments, tools and portfolios could be more effective.

# data[].attributes.body
We, too, this year we introduced the key competences and skills assessment in our Pianon of the training, we must still improve

# data[].attributes.body
I think in the importance of the formative asessment, it' very useful, but onece a month i propose a sommative proof, that i tryt to build thinking also to competence. What it' very difficult to do is teach the self.assessment in my opinion: here the student could make his difference!

# data[].attributes.body
This video is very important and very useful.

# data[].attributes.body
In my school we use assessment of competence in the VET program and I think that it is a big challenge for teachers who are used to a content based assessment. But this can help us to use this methodology also to curricula and learning objectives

# data[].attributes.body
This year my school has introduced key competences to our curricula, defining new learning objectives for different stages of education. I think we have better work now on assestment.

# data[].attributes.body
Es war nicht so leicht alles zu verstehen aber die soziale Erziehung und das Arbeiten digitalen Medien interssiert mich sehr.Das Thema bewerte ich als wunderbar.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm very interested in assessment in general and in the assessment of key competence in particular.

# data[].attributes.body
I think assessment is a very important way to learn and know ourselves. I use self assessment every day

# data[].attributes.body
yes it is true, assessment is necessary different, it cannot be based on knowledge anymore

# data[].attributes.body
As we have new curricula in schools now we also have new objectives and new outcomes and for this reasons we can't keep on going assessing like we did before. I think we need to create rubrics according to the activity we do with our sts and to the competence we are willing to assess. It's not only a matter of tests but I think we need to observe the way sts do things, how confident they are in such a comptence, how they solve problems and so on.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment is the key to growth.

# data[].attributes.body
I think for teachers accustomed to using a traditional didactic and a traditional valuation method is difficult to change the way they plan activities in order to develop competences skills. Yet it is more difficult to assess the skills and their development during their education.
The video provides some hint to reflect, but in everyday practice how to act?

# data[].attributes.body
I still give lots of importance to summative tests. I understand that something needs to change but I'm still unsure on how to achieve this. This course is making me think about how I teach and what could be improved.

# data[].attributes.body
It's very necessary to help students to understand their forces and limits to enhance trust in themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
Interesting but limited in the tools that features: e-assessment and portfolios; was below expectations

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment is important for both students and teacher.
Students usually understand weather their learning activity  has been effective and , if they are guided towards self-assessment can improve  and change learning strategies.
Through assessment the teacher can adjust his teaching action and scaffold learning,  providing students with help.
Assessment gives the teacher also a measure of his effectiveness.
To assess key competences is a rather demanding and therefore should be
carried out by all the teachers, as a team.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that I have to change my way of teaching, especially to propose new activites and assess tranversal skills. I'd like to have some more news about student's portfolio.

# data[].attributes.body
The way a teacher assesses his students depends mainly on the teacher's vision of the learning-teaching process.
In primary school, both formative and summative assessment are used, in order to have a 360° degrees view on the pupil and on his learning path.
Self- and peer- assessment are now increasingly important to lead the teaching work to project-based and competence-based activity, because they help students to become aware of their learning strategies, strengths and weaknesses

# data[].attributes.body
New ways of assessing (such as self-assessment) are necessary as we have to assess transversal skills and competences such as creativity, initiative, management of feelings.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with some of my colleagues, when they say that assessing key competences is not easy for teachers, because they are used to assess the results of tests and not the process of learning. But this video by Janet Looney shows that now it's time to update teachers' knowledge about new approaches to learning and assesments. I liked in particular the idea of emphasizing collaborative and multidisciplinary learning, by focusing more on transversal skills like creativity and problem solving. And then the crucial awareness that in the future schools of Europe should make sure that
learning objectives, curriculum and assessment must be aligned. Self assessment, where students can track their own development of transversal competences, is in my experience something really far from reality, and I strongly hope it will be the next goal to reach in the world of education from this moment on.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Gina. I think that in the 21st Century SchooI  is very important  that teachers need to develop new approaches to assessment to adapt teaching and  to better meet learner needs. In addition teachers should consider new assessment:
1)summative assessment;

2)formative assessment;
3)student self

assessment of progress toward the transversal

competences.

# data[].attributes.body

Even in Italy using the training test and the summative tests. But do we really know to use them? Knowledge is important but it is also important to the understanding of the subject.

Assessment is a very important part of learning. There is assessment of learning(summative), for learning (formative)and self assessment.

Formative assessment is important for key competence

learning. It may be useful to think of formative assessment as an integrated part of

the learning process.

# data[].attributes.body
The class, as part of the time and skills, with the teacher and pupils with their personal contribution and single become a hotbed of transversal knowledge capable of touching the knowledge of the one who gets to know you all.

# data[].attributes.body
the video is very useful

# data[].attributes.body
Students have to think about their learning processes and to analyze how they're improving competences. Teachers can try to describe this process using a factorial map.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion this video show lots opportunity to develop students competences, but I think that teacher must adapt their studymethod to the students

To learn self-assessment is really important! I learnt this good-practice from one of my colleagues. It's really effective and you can follow a whole learning process with it. You print this for your students and ask them where are they feeling themselves on this tree:

self-assessment is a n unusual strategy in traditional teaching. In this new perspective, competence oriented It is essential to improve involvemenrt and responsability

# data[].attributes.body
In order to assess competences, teachers should focus on a different assessment approach.

# data[].attributes.body
Many colleagues used a traditional approach ... often the development of interdisciplinary skills remains only on paper.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessing is to assess to what extent a process or a state of affairs is in accordance with the expected or desired. In evaluating skills, the focus is on development (process) and held (state of affairs), by the students, the skills that the school hopes to learn. The main difficulty in assessing skills is the fact that it is often difficult or even impossible, to directly observe whether a student is developing or already have certain skill, because this is not is directly observable or not easy to observe it .​I argue that it should operationally define the competence in question and specify indicators that point to the development or possession of this competence.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that even now the evaluation has an indicative value because, by involving pupils, promotes empowerment and awareness uma logical learning throughout life.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm very interested in assessment of key competences even if I think it's so difficult to integrate the three faces of assesment of competences that is summative assessment, formative assessment and student self-assessment of progress.

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you for such interesting video. I always encourage students to do self-assessment. For example they do "Can Do" progress check.  Very often, almost always they are sincere and after that check they understand their strong and weak sides.

# data[].attributes.body
Sumative  assessment , passing tests, exams are hard for some students.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment in all its forms must be revised and instilling the learning-to-learn , the passion to learn and discover are more crucial to Learning and to learners, themselves.

Very clear and useful!

It is evident from this video that summative assessment - testing students' knowledge of course - is becoming obsolete. However, this is still the ONLY assessing tool the Italian education system has known up to now.  This video shows a complete new perspective for the future of education. I really do hope the change will be swift and consistent throughout all Italian schools.

Thank you. This video makes us reflect on the importance of a new approach to assessing. In particular the section on the assessment of transversal skills - such as problem solving, decision taking, creativity - reveals a new social perspective on didactics, making  school much closer to the real world.

I think this is the most difficult part for teachers (especially in Italy where teachers' training is a bit peculiar). Teaching is a difficult task but assessing is more difficult when you don't have any specific training on this subject. A lot of what we learn springs from our everyday working experience. We are now more and more involved in discussing and thinking about all aspects of learning, assessment included, and this is a great step forward developing a new and clearer awareness of our role and our profession (what is our aim, what we do, how we can do it better, how to evaluate the outcomes, etc.).

# data[].attributes.body
Evaluate the student's skills means giving more value to the person and not simply regard it as a well filled to quantify vessel. The difficulty is to revolutionize the whole way we do school must therefore be supported by the whole system.

# data[].attributes.body
Interesting! Thanks!

# data[].attributes.body
Assessing key competences is not easy for teachers, because we are used to assess the results of tests and not the process of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I am convinced that the assessment skills is very important in the training process of the students. Evaluate only the knowledge is simplistic and very often can become an obstacle for all those students who have best practical skills rather than theoretical ones.

# data[].attributes.body
I really appreciate the concept of assessing personal improvement rather than goals and scores. This perspective helps us in the development of a more personalized teaching. I also think it should be a collective perspective of the didactic équipe.

# data[].attributes.body
It is very interesting, while listening I feel like changing my way of teaching and use these strategies. Unfortunately, when I think about the situation in Italian schools, I find it very hard to conceive a real change, first of all because of a huge lack of funds and because we have little chance to get modern tools. Anyway, that does not mean I do not want to change and learnew strategies. I hope this will be the result of this course.

# data[].attributes.body
Will we succeed in this marathon against time? I mean, everything is changing so fast! Is Italian school  aware of these changings? Apart from individual initiatives of single schools or single teachers I cannot see a global approach to the question of how school should change. In one of the first videos it was said that simple procedures or simple jobs will be done by robots while human work will be more and more specialised on problem solving.

# data[].attributes.body
very interesting, it's important to help learners to understand their limits and forces to enhance trust in themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
ocus on helping students to pass test is one of my teaching' goals. It'snot a good way but it is necessary. Learning skills and not only knowledge is the way. I hope I'll find the right way to teach it.

# data[].attributes.body
I really appreciate the concept of helping learners understand what their stenghts and weaknesses are. In my opinion self-assessment is a chore element of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Teaching by skills , though it is a centrally part of the  compulsory education up to age 16, still has not found great success
for several reasons, not least the difficulty for the  teachers, to create a dynamic "learning environment"  within a rigid organizational structure, as is our school.

# data[].attributes.body
I absolutely agree with Anne Fischer''s from Berlin comment and I think that self-assessment is the best way to involve students in their learning process and to take the responsibility for the results. I also practice peer-assessment from time to time and I have found out that students are much stricter to their peers that the teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
The video is very interesting. assessment and self-assessment is very important for students and for us - teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
The video is very interesting and tried to teach us something about assessing key competences.
Assessing key competences is real difficult because we need all the class teachers collaboration and the application of all these ideas are really a challenge but very difficult. The collaboration of teachers is sometimes not the ideal one to implement these methods.
Maybe in Module 3 we will learn more in order to understand how to implement it better. I'm looking forward to doing it.

# data[].attributes.body
I haven't tried student self-assessment yet. I am eager to get some ideas

# data[].attributes.body
For the present moment, our national curriculum is most based on content learning, very extensive programs, and short and long-term goals, but the ministerial guides go towards competences. So, we are having a problem here: should we teach using competences and the correspondent didactics or should we follow the other way? That’s the reason I’m learning the themes of this course, because I want to find what is more profitable for my students, although it messes with my mind to unite all these information!

# data[].attributes.body
It is very important to trakk students progress

# data[].attributes.body
In my schools the our educational designs provide the “compiti di realtà o in situazione”. They should derive from a multidisciplinary work and often it is not so. . In most cases, my colleagues used a traditional approach and they think that introducing competence assessment is “hard job”. In fact, often the development of interdisciplinary skills remains only on paper.

# data[].attributes.body
Our country is not yet well organized as far as technological tools are concerned.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment is a fundamental step in teaching-learning process. Still today, in traditional assessment tools students are more concentrated on points and grades in a competitive way than on their effective own achievement of skills and attitudes.
So I think we teachers should discuss more about it in class and vary our assessment methods to meet the different students’ needs and promote their own competences. Portfolios and e-assessment are stimulating tools.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the speaker. I believe that assessment is important for both teacher and student and is a process that can be done by the both participants in learning. Self assessment through portfolios/e-assesments and innovations can improve skills.
