In relation to the evaluation procedures that we are going to use for our didactic units we can talk about different techniques:
1. Informal assessment: The most popular one used in the English classroom is direct
observation which allows us to get information every day on every moment when ours students are performing any task. In order to be effective the teacher should be trained to do observation, it should be carried out periodically and on a period basis.
2. Formal evaluation: There are a wide variety of instruments that allows the teacher to carry out a formal evaluation. In our case, we will use:
• Class portfolio (with examples of written and oral work)
• End of unit tests
• End of term exams
Specific rubrics will be used for grading purposes so students and parents have precise information about the progress of the student.
