What are the principles of effective teacher self-assessment?



This video explains how teachers can benefit from online self-assessment in their professional development, and the basic principles behind this. The assessment expert, Janet Looney, answers the following questions: What is the use of assessing your own work? How can we be sure that self-assessments are valid and reliable? How do you assess yourself or your peers when there is no ‘right’ answer?

In the context of online self managed learning teachers are:

  • setting goals
  • deciding what learning strategy would be most effective
  • tracking their own progress
  • responding to the feedback from other peers
  • assessing their own progress
  • thinking how to integrate new methods in their teaching
  • assessing the impact
  • identifying ways they can best help their students

Jane Looney asks herself, how can we be sure that self assessments are valid and reliable.
Validity and Reliability are two basic terms in self assessment.
