Assessment in the English language programme



 

43. Assessment of the results of “English” subject studying is carried out in accordance with the use of Criteria-based assessment system.

44. Criteria-based assessment – the assessment process based on a comparison of learners’ academic achievements with clearly defined and familiar to all stakeholders (leaners, administration of educational organization, teaching staff, parents and other legal representatives) assessment criteria, fulfilling the objectives and content of secondary education, which facilitate to form educational-cognitive abilities of students.

45. Criteria-based assessment is based on the principle that teaching, learning and assessment are interrelated.

46. Criteria-based assessment results are used to plan and organize the learning process effectively.

47. Criteria-based assessment system for secondary school includes formative assessment and summative assessment.

48. Formative assessment – the assessment process which determines the level of knowledge and skills acquirement in the daily work in the classroom and / or at home and carrying out operational connection between learner and teacher in the learning process, allowing leaners to understand how well they perform tasks when learning new material and achieve learning objectives and expected outcomes.

49. Summative assessment – the assessment process that determines the level of knowledge acquisition and skill development of students after finishing units of subject programme for the term, and after finishing the level of education.

50. Competence in the use of digital technologies in English language programme. Competence in the use of digital technologies involves confident and critical use of technology for work, leisure and communication. It is underpinned by basic skills in ICT (Information and Communication Technology).

51. Learners develop their ICT skills across the curriculum by finding, creating and manipulating information, collaborating and communicating information and ideas, evaluating and then refining their work, and by using a wide range of equipment and applications.

52. In the English programme, this will include:

1) developing research skills, such as finding, classifying, selecting, analysing, designing, referencing, presenting, assessing and/or evaluating information from digital and online sources, making judgments about accuracy and reliability;

2) developing competence in collaborating, communicating and sharing information which includes participating in online projects, conferencing, e-mailing with the teacher and pen pals and learners from Kazakhstani and foreign countries’ schools, creating and exploring web-sites, blogging and using social networks;

3) creating, manipulating and processing information using technology to capture and organise data including using different applications such as text, graphic, video and online survey software;

4) evaluating, refining and improving work, making full use of the nature and pliability of digital information to explore opinions and improve outcomes;

5) using presentation graphics software to allow learners to critique, evaluate, refine and present their work to their peers;

6) using interactive whiteboards to support active learning approaches.

60. This is the substantive knowledge of the programme and comprises what we know in the subject and how we gain that knowledge. Knowledge in the subject is organised into strands of learning. Strands are further broken down into sub-strands, which will be at the level of a skill or topic, knowledge or understanding. Sub-strands, when expressed as grade-related expectations, form the learning objectives for a subject. The learning objectives demonstrate the progression within each sub-strand allowing teachers to plan and assess, sharing with learners the next steps they should take.
