Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research purpose is to create a course improvement cycle model based on self-assessment of students’ learning. The steps in each course improvement cycle are rubric development, self-assessment, course assessment and course improvement. A rubric can help students assess learning, because it provides a method for quantitative analysis of learning achievements based on standards. In addition, my pilot study shows summarized rubrics can suggest improvements to the course. It is suggested that a rubric is helpful for not only assessment of learning but reflection on education effect of a course. For a purpose of implementing the cycle model in a class, I developed some rubric features as plugin for Mahara which is one of open-source ePortfolio systems. Students can check their learning achievement, and also show their rubric as showcase portfolios using plugins on Mahara. In addition, teachers can confirm results of students’ self-assessment to reflect on education effect.
