Testing: concept map

Greetings.
In this new entry, you will be able to see a concept map based on the systematic assessment procedure: testing. Testing as an assessment tool can have different purposes, so there will be different types of tests. In the bottom of the map, you will see the kind of tests that we are able to develop according to their purpose and scoring manner. In the top left, the map will display their components. In the right part, you will see the cornerstones that are part of the design of a test.







For the development of this concept map, I noticed that each element was so important in order to understand the whole issue. Testing has more implications than I used to think. In someway, some kinds of test are very related, even two or more types of tests can be applied at the same time. However, it would be very helpful to apply any kind of these tests in our future lessons, in order to become more familiar and get confident with their use.

Formative assessment tools video

Greetings.
In the following video, I am going to talk about some features of the formative assessment tools. Formative assessment tools can be applied in courses as timely feedback, because these aim to assess the progress of the student performance. Concept maps, rubrics and portfolios are some types of assessment tools. Concept maps are going to be useful to evaluate knowledge comprehension. Rubrics are going to be useful in terms of establishing requirements and quality grades. Finally, portfolios are the collection which provide information about progress and growth.

During the making of this video, I noticed that I had a great amount of pauses and some misunderstandings. However. I tried to give a wide reflection than my previous video.
