Informal Assessment

Rodrìguez Pintle Eric

The informal assessment is one of the ways a teacher has to evaluate his/her students’ work in the classroom. This technique requires a constant evaluating process which involves the continuous observation to our students. The fact that informal assessment is very useful, it does not mean that we will stop using formal assessment, because is not always suitable to assess our students every day, sometimes we won’t be able to do it, therefore we need a combination of both kinds of assessment. When assessing, we have to observe the 4 skills and see which is the most difficult or which one is the one that students struggle more with. With this information we must create a strategy to improve those weaknesses

  1. Hello Eric,
    Thank you for such a wonderful portfolio, I like the background. I am happy you think this unit was useful. What i wanted to show you is that we have to plan the assessment and that there are other ways to assess students and that tests are not our only options.
    Where is unit 1?
