Assessment & Evaluation
Assessment is an ongoing process throughout B-SLIM that gives feedback to the teacher about how and what students are learning – through both observation and direct feedback from students. Assessment also involves providing criteria that help students see how they are doing and how they can improve in addition to demonstrating what makes a GOOD performance and what makes communication successful. Assessment helps teachers to determine what students still need to learn.
Contrary to Assessment, Evaluation occurs at the end of the BSLIM process and involves final grades, tests, exams and determining what students still need to learn in order to reach a prescribed mandate.
