Self-Appraisal

Assessment should help students develop the ability to judge their accomplishments, to set their goals, decide how to achieve those goals, and evaluate their progress in meeting the goals. Self -Appraisal allows children to recognize areas of strenghts and weakness.

Self-questioning proceeds as follows:

1. Do i understand exactly what i am supposed to do for this assignment?


2. What i am trying to learn?


3. What do i already know about this subject that helps in understanding what i read?


4. What is the most efficient way for me to learn this material?


5. What chapters may give me problems?


6. What can i do in order to understand the hard parts?


7. After i have finished readind, have i understood what i have read?
