Evaluating and Improving

3.3

Intro

Evaluating and improving work is a cornerstone of teaching and learning. To master this element of the Digital Competency Framework, you do not necessarily need to use technology. Your pupils can use the self-assessment and peer-assessment techniques with which they are familiar.

Having said that, there are excellent ways to use technology effectively for self and peer assessment. You'll find a few suggestions below.

Activity Suggestions

  1. Fill a Book Creator project on an iPad with photos of pupils at work. Each child (with support) creates a voice recording (or video) explaining what they were doing in the pictures.
  2. Have them take a photo of their work and, after you insert it into Book Creator project, the pupils can record a video or a voice recording explaining what they did.
  3. Hang some impressive pieces of work on the wall/string. Pupils use a small voice recording device (e.g. peg, whiteboard etc - there are many such tools on sale to schools) to describe what they did in that task.
  4. Pupils film each other using an iPad, explaining what was the best part of their day.
