Pupils’ Views on Assessment

Summary/Abstract: There has been much controversy over assessment in schools since pupils are often dissatisfied with the grades they get but also with the way a teacher evaluates and assesses their knowledge. Teachers often find themselves in a dilemma when it comes to assessment: they are not sure which aspects and components of pupil’s activities should be evaluated, the amount of knowledge for a certain grade, the ways to make grades more objective, etc. Likewise, pupils are often confused: some teachers require little effort for a high grade and others require the opposite; some pupils prefer oral examination and others prefer written. Taking all this into consideration, we were interested in the opinion of those who are affected most in this process – pupils. The results of the research showed that the initial hypothesis was mainly correct: the pupils are aware of the limitations of the numerical grading, but there is a large percentage of them who support this kind of assessment.
