Assessment for learning
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 30 juin 2018 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

We have noticed that our pupils’ willingness to learn does not surpass the extrinsic motivation of just wanting to obtain “50%” to pass. They do not seem to want to become better learners, and the motivation to take their learning process in their own hands is lacking. We want to change this and therefore research working methods and systems which focus on assessment for learning, not assessment of learning.That is why we want to look for real school examples of good practice. We hope to learn a lot from a course in Iceland, which will focus on competences and alternative forms of evaluation. To get a view on the practical implementation of such practices, we would like to have a job shadow in one of our eTwinning partner schools in Stockholm, where alternative feedback has been used for several years already.The project team will have representatives for all three Modern Foreign Languages taught at our school: English, French and German. As decisions will have to be made beyond language curriculums and on management level, the team will also include the educational adviser and (a member of) the school board. The team will act as a strategic workforce, also before, in between and after the mobilities.After the mobilities the project team will discuss and negotiate thoroughly within their strategic workforce and with the educational team of the school in order to distill, from the things we learnt, what can be implemented in our own school and how we can go about it, to make our pupils into sustainable learners (in the long run), who are willing to keep on developing themselves and the quality of their work all their lives. The strategic workforce will therefore design a strategy and an action plan and make sure they are carried out in the Modern Foreign Languages departments of the school.At the end of this project the participants and the other Modern Foreign Languages teachers will have a solid insight in different and alternative forms of evaluation and reporting. Guided by the educational team and the strategic workforce the school will work out an evaluation and reporting policy which fits our school culture. Through this policy the pupils will be stimulated and intrinsically motivated to study in a sustainable way, with an eye for quality all the way. The pupils and their parents will obtain transparent information about learning outcomes and useful tips to improve them.The school counts on all members of the Modern Foreign Languages departments and on the educational team to implement all this on a broader scale.The educational adviser will disseminate through networks involving different schools, through interventions in schools in the Antwerp region, internally within the mentor department and - covering the scope of the entire region of Flanders - through interregional meetings with Modern Foreign Languages educational advisers.
