Ass essment :)

Scriven in 1995 provides a sense of the different levels of student involvement in assessment. Starting with very superficial involvement, each level brings students further into the actual assessment equation. Students can do the following:
Take the test and receive the grade;

Be invited to offer the teacher comments on how to improve the test;
Suggest possible assessment exercises;
Actually develop assessment exercises;
Assist the teacher in devising the scoring criteria;
Create the scoring criteria on their own;
Apply scoring criteria to the evaluation of their own performance;
Come to understand how assessment and evaluation affect their own academic success;
Come and see how their own self-assessment relates to the teacher’s assessment and to their own academic success.
