I have learnt that formative assessment occurs on an ongoing basis and that summative assessment occurs at the end of a unit, project, or course.
Los tres tipos de evaluación, deberán ser aplicados a lo largo del cursado. La diagnostica nos permite evaluar desde donde partimos con el saber, la formativa nos ayuda como instructores a identificar en el proceso si el estudiante tiene dificultades en algún tema y la sumativa pone al estudiante frente a su propio saber, es decir cuánto aprendió, es un Juicio a sus competencias. Todas estas evaluaciones nos permiten como instructores evaluar a nuestros estudiantes tanto en sus conocimientos como en sus habilidades. La valoración y la evaluación son necesarias en el diseño de un curso, una mejora el aprendizaje y la otra lo califica
I learned the importance of assessments and evaluations
I learned about the importance of Diagnostic, Formative and Summative assessments. I plan to start using diagnostic assessments moving forward.
i didnt think there was a difference .
I love how clear the explanation for formative and summative is. I learned the difference between assessment and evaluations.
I am learing the value of helping the student make connections with the course information
Interesting to hear about the different types of assessment. It is important that formative assessment is an ongoing process taken at intervals during the term. Summative should be given at the end of the term.
I learned that Diagnostic assessement is based on students prior knowledge of a particular subject. Diagnostic assessment becomes part of formative assessment that help improves student learning.
I learned about the differences between Assessment and Evaluation as well as Summative and Formative. There were great ideas about "Muddiest Point" and "One minute paper" for evaluating if the students are learning and if anything needs to clarified in the lecture.
Diagnostic assessment measure the pre-exting skills or knowledge of students. They help instructours to develop the current or next program. Wheras the Formative assessment provide insight view for understanding of students to the current content.Also, they indicate that students develop thier skills or not, and give instructor good feedback for learning.
The diference between each and how to use them.
Hi,
I consider that the diagnostic assessment is very important to design a self-assessment by pre-test and post-test and 1-2-3-list. It takes more time, the instructor continually develops assessment and evaluate the students. Is the best tool to identify learning level.
It was a good referesher to go back through the different types of assesment. Very much like what we've covered in previous modules, there's definitely a time and place for the different forms of assesment, and the appropriateness of each depends on the curruiculum, the instructor, the students' needs, and the learning objectives.
Assessments are helpful whether done before, during, or at the end of a lesson to gain information to help students in learning.
The importance of assessment in daily class for the purpose of learning
In this module we learned the difference between assesment and evaluation and how the two are crutial to the learning and teaching enviornment. Also learned about diagnostic assessment and how important it is to apply before a course to see what knowledge the student has about the course.
In this module I learned the difference between assessment and evaluation, and when it might be appropriate to use each one. I also learned about the classification of levels of learning.
Bloom's Taxonomy has been changed over the last few years. I see that "synthesis" has been removed (combined into Analysis and Evaluation) and "Create" added to the top of the pyramid. It is good to see evoluation in the concept. Formative and summative assessments are important, but can be overdone. It is important to understand why the assesssments are being done and what will be done with that information.
I think it is a great idea to remember that the end goal of assessment is student retention and memory formation of that knowledge. Assessment is such an integral tool to all in education today. I regularly use assessment to evaluate student ability and where to make important instructional decisions for the best outcome for my students.
