What you will learn
It is commonly recognised that early-career teachers often lack the confidence and the skills to develop meaningful assessment opportunities for their learners.
Indeed, assessment itself is mistakenly seen as being synonymous with developing tests which demonstrate learning at the end of a given period of learning. This masterclass challenges the view that testing and assessment are synonymous and provides practical examples of assessment activities which can create better learning, better teaching and better learners.
It introduces the concepts of assessment of, for and as learning and suggests that an awareness of assessment ideas from mainstream education can inform and improve our practice.
Presented by Neil Harris – Teacher Trainer & Director of Marketing @ CELT Language School.

Assessment
Every workshop has delivered something I can use in my classes. I´ve since given several classes putting into practice the lessons from the workshop.
Assessment of, for and as Learning
Another eye opening master class related to assessment in which Neil Harris explained with excellent details an examples the importance of AFL to encourage students autonomy regarding their own progress. A really inspiring masterclass which I highly recommend. Great learning with you and from you Neil! Thank you very much!
Testing and assessment are 2 different things!
A very clear masterclass on the difference between testing and assessment and the different purposes of each one. I particularly enjoyed the live Q&A session. Neil and André did a great job in expanding some ideas about PBL and the use of L1 regarding assessment. My takeaway is about the framework of Teaching for understanding. Thanks a lot!
