Evaluation and assessment of transversal attitudes, skills and knowledge
Module A : Strasbourg, France - 20-23 October 2015 – Module B - Mosta, Malta - 24-27 may 2016
Brief introduction
The current trainer training course will focus on how teaching programs and courses can be evaluated
and how learning progress and outcomes with regard to transversal attitudes, skills and knowledge -
TASKs - can be assessed. The course will explore and help us to respond to questions such as: Were the
expected outcomes reached? To what extent were the TASK components developed? Do we have a
reliable and useful picture of where each student stands? Have individual students in my class developed
their awareness of where they are at in relation to the expected outcomes? What can I as a teacher do
differently to better support the learning process and recognise progress?
