Methods of Assessment Formative & Summative
Formative assessment- to weigh students’ skills

via exercises and tasks, with tutor feedback as appropriate and to monitor student’s learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning.

Summative assessment- to evaluate student’s learning and academic achievement at the end of a term, year or semester by comparing it against national education standards or university benchmark.

Formative (on-going assessment)

Tests – 10%:
Gap fill tasks;
Matching tasks;
Multiple choice tasks.
For assessing students’ self-study

on Moodle, at the end of several lessons they are given different types of tasks mentioned above. They are marked automatically by completing the test.

Слайд 13

Audio recording at the beginning of the course – 10%.
Students are

supposed to record their voice on a concrete topic or questions paying attention to own pronunciation and upload it on the platform. Additionally, they are asked to listen to others’ recordings and make a peer review indicating mistakes made by their partner.

Слайд 14

Transcription assignments – 10%.
In this type of tasks learners should transcribe

words in the given list or sentences. At the end of the course they will be given texts to transcribe or ready transcriptions to turn them into texts.

The film shows an executive of an American call centre who goes to India to teach prospective staff “proper” English. In the end, he falls in love there (naturally) and ends up speaking English with a beautiful Indian English accent himself!

Слайд 15

Dictations– 10%.
Dictation tasks require students to listen to some audios and

fill in the table with the words/sentences/texts they have heard.

Слайд 16

Phonetic analysis – 10%.
At the beginning of the course students need

to make phonetic analysis of English sounds, later they demonstrate how they analyze words/group of words/sentences (in tomogram) phonetically.

Слайд 17

Audio recording at the end of the course – 10%.
This time

teachers ask learners to record their voice of the same material given at the beginning of the course again in order to see the progress they have made. Instead of peer review students should write reflection showing whether all taught materials and practice have helped to develop their pronunciation or not. At the end teachers give feedback evaluating students’ progress in pronunciation.

Слайд 18

Summative assessment consists of:
Mid-term exam – 20%.
The first part of this

assessment is oral where students should recite any 3 vowel sounds out of 20 asked by the teacher for what they get half of mark-10%. Another half of mark-10% is given to 30 tests completion where teachers check students’ comprehension of taught materials.
Final exam – 20%.
At the end of the course learners pass final in two stages again:
Oral (recite rhymes or tongue twisters given beforehand paying big attention to pronunciation and read dialogues/jokes/short texts dramatically which is evaluated in terms of both pronunciation and intonation online). Each stage is given 5% overall 10%.
Written (50 online tests on checking students’ comprehension of the whole course) – 10%.
