Spotlight on Skills: Creating a Podcast/Oral Report This resource helps to explain how to design and develop a Podcast/Oral Report Access Spotlight on Skills in the Getting Started module of your course Hello and welcome to my podcast, "Unlearning Old Beliefs About Assessment." In today's episode, we'll be discussing assessment for learning, constructing assessment practices and tools for students, using assessment to help students learn better and take responsibility for their learning, unlearning beliefs about assessment that educators and learners must let go of, and more. So, let's dive in! First, let's talk about assessment for learning. Assessment for learning is a process that involves actively engaging students in the assessment process, where students and teachers work together to evaluate student learning and provide feedback that helps students understand their strengths and areas for improvement. This process is not just about measuring what students have learned but is more about creating an environment where students can learn more effectively. Next, let's discuss how educators can construct assessment practices and tools for students. When designing assessments,

it's essential to consider what you want to assess, how you want to assess it, and what tools you need to accomplish your goals. One approach is to use rubrics, which help to clarify the expectations of the assignment and provide feedback to students on their performance. It's also essential to consider the students' learning styles, backgrounds, and abilities when designing assessments. Using assessment to help students learn better and take responsibility for their learning is crucial. When students receive feedback and can see their progress, they are more likely to take ownership of their learning. They become more engaged and motivated, leading to better outcomes. Moreover, it's essential to make sure that the assessment aligns with the learning objectives, and feedback is timely and specific. Now, let's talk about some of the beliefs that educators must unlearn about assessment. One belief is that assessment is only for grading purposes. We must shift our thinking to see assessment as a tool for learning, not just a tool for grading. Another belief is that summative assessments are the only assessments that matter. We need to realize that formative assessments are also essential and can help students to learn and grow. Finally, learners (students) must unlearn some beliefs about assessment to improve their learning. One belief is that assessments are always stressful, and they only exist to measure what they do not know. Students need to understand that assessments are also opportunities to learn and grow. Another belief is that grades are the only measure of success. Students must understand that assessment is about learning, not just grades. In conclusion, assessment for learning is an essential process that involves actively engaging students in the assessment process to help them learn better and take ownership of their learning. Educators must construct assessment practices and
tools that align with learning objectives, consider students' learning styles and abilities, and provide timely and specific feedback. It's also crucial to unlearn some old beliefs about assessment, shifting our thinking from assessment as a tool for grading to a tool for learning. Thank you for listening, and I hope you found this podcast informative and helpful.
