Split – Effective Formative Assessment: Interactive Strategies for Teachers

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Strengthen your assessment literacy, explore diverse assessment strategies, and turn evaluations into meaningful learning experiences

This course supports teachers of all backgrounds by deepening their understanding of assessment beyond traditional marks and testing. Its main objective is to broaden teachers’ assessment literacy and equip them with practical techniques that place formative assessment at the center of learning.

Participants will develop skills that help transform assessments from simple measurement tools into opportunities for growth. By understanding the reasoning behind different tasks—how they work and why they matter—teachers will be able to guide students more effectively through the learning process.

Build confidence in formative assessment methods, digital assessment tools, and essential soft skills

Throughout the training, teachers will take part in numerous formative assessment tasks and experiment with digital tools that make evaluations more dynamic and engaging. Group discussions will explore classroom climate, collaborative learning, and peer-to-peer assessment.

Alongside practical strategies, the course also focuses on strengthening soft skills that support the successful introduction of new assessment techniques in real classrooms. Participants will refine their communication, reflection, and facilitation skills as they explore modern approaches.

Increase student motivation and participation in your lessons

A central part of the course encourages teachers to reflect on their current assessment routines and compare them with contemporary practices. Participants will design their own assessment tools, tailor rubrics to their teaching context, and develop evaluation criteria that support fairness and clarity.

Through a humanistic assessment project, teachers will learn how to foster deeper student involvement and set learners on a path toward success—no matter their starting point or abilities.

In the end, this course aims to provide educators with practical tools that enhance their teaching, improve student learning, and promote meaningful classroom engagement through updated and innovative assessment strategies.
