Formative vs Summative Assessment - knowledge vs creativity
Anna Przybyło, Anna Krzemińska-Kaczyńska
Summary
The questions about grading are the most common among teachers. How do we test the students? Should we test them? How do we know that it is the right time to test? What about skills? How do we know that students are ready to take action based on the knowledge gained during the past lessons? During this talk, we would like to share with you the strategies of assessing the students starting from formative assessment and finishing with the amazing strength of summative assessment. The presentation supported with the photos and videos from our classes will be a great source of inspiration!
Biodata
Anna Przybyło - I completed my Master's degree in History at the Jagiellonian University, followed by a Bachelor's and Master's degree in English Philology. I also finished postgraduate studies in "Educational Management." For several years, I was an English teacher at one of Kraków's integrative schools and preschools. Since 2010, I have been running my own language school, where my team and I primarily support children from rural areas. I have been working at Open Future International School since 2018. Currently, I hold the positions of Deputy Head of the Primary School and Methodological Director, where I mainly focus on the development of teachers, communication with parents, and the well-being of students. I continuously serve as an English, History, and Civics (taught in English) teacher. I am constantly working on improving the education system not only in our school. In 2020, I began my doctoral studies in the Faculty of Pedagogy. My research focuses on the reconstructive competencies of both teachers and students. I share my practical knowledge through numerous presentations, training sessions, and international conferences. I am also the author of scholarly articles on methodological topics. My motto in work and life is Albert Einstein's words: "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results," which is why I am a constantly searching teacher.
