I have never assessed collaborative work, but have assessed group work and implemented self-evaluation. Usually, the students are fair when evaluating themselves or their schoolmates and I don't think it enhances competition. In the summative assessment, I try to take group work into account, by giving a mark to the work and putting it in the final assessment grid. As I said, it is not an easy task.]]> 2017-10-11 00:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195846140 A sports teacher's experience of assessing students’ collaborative learning saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195848295 I think this kind of assessment is as complete as possible: individual, peer assessment and group functionality. Maybe they are too young, it depends on the simplicity of the evaluation, which, in this case I think it was adequate. Anyway, children are usually honest and fair to one another. ]]> 2017-10-11 00:47:49 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195848295 saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195848878 2017-10-11 00:52:32 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195848878 An ICT teacher’s experience of assessing students’ collaborative learning saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195850203 I have never experienced an etwinnig project or mystery skype althgough I recognize that these kind of projects are crucial to involve the students in collaborative work. However, I think the teachers must be prepared  and have ICT knowledge and work in collaboration with other teachers. Isolation in schools doens't promote that kind of work.
as for the final question, I think the process is more important in collaborative work. If the group doesn´t work properly, they will hardly get any results.]]> 2017-10-11 01:03:22 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/195850203 Have you ever used existing rubrics and checklists to assess collaborative work? saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196238728 I have sometimes used rubricks and checklists especially for self-evaluation in group work.  We (sts and tchr) also discuss which criteria should be used to assess students' work]]> 2017-10-11 22:45:58 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196238728 saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196238841 2017-10-11 22:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196238841 saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196239134 2017-10-11 22:49:10 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196239134 Answers to teachers’ questions on assessing collaborative learning saolsilva https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196982946 I agree with Professor Valente and I think it is very important that the students stop looking at the teacher as the owner of the truth, which still happens somehow. Self and peer assessment are a great contribution to students' responsibility, sense of justice and autonomy.
In my opinion, a percentage should be given to individual assessment within the group.]]> 2017-10-13 22:41:01 UTC https://padlet.com/saolsilva/p3nkmciectdr/wish/196982946
