Basic assumptions
• Examination is dominating the students learning approach
• Criteria for evaluation are crucial for the learning process
• Evaluation is a basic part for the learning process (reflection)
• (Personal skills, metalearning etc. need formative evaluation forms)
![Page 11: The new educational model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5681323b550346895d98a36e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

PBL and assessment
• Assessment has an impact on the learning process (Gibbs)
• Peer assessment has an impact on motivation (Siegers)

Guidelines for Project EvaluationE study board:
1. Project conclusion (Presentation):• At the project conclusion the group will
present the whole project - all group members equally. There will be no discussion or evaluation of the quality of the project. The conclusion should normally take 10 minutes per student but normally not more than 1 hour per group.
![Page 17: The new educational model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5681323b550346895d98a36e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
2. Examination (individual):• The examination may be based on questions prepared
in advance on the basis of the project report including all central subjects within the project unit goal.
• Each group member is given 35-45 minutes for examination and voting. Concerning B.Sc.-, M.Sc.-, and Master-thesis projects each group member may be given 15 minutes more.
• The evaluation is based on both the written report and the oral presentation. The report is indirectly part of the evaluation and will not be graded separately.
• The members of the project group are not allowed to be present in the examination room before they are to be examined or have been examined.
![Page 18: The new educational model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081513/5681323b550346895d98a36e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
3. Discussion of the report • When all group members have been examined and all grades
are given the group will be offered feedback to the project report.
Note: • From fall 2007 grades are given according to the 7-step scale.• The students are entitled to receive the grade immediately after
the examination. However, the students and the supervisor may decide that grades are given when all group members have been examined. The students are entitled to receive the grade in private.
• During the voting the examiner and the supervisor must take notes about the presentation and the assessment of grades to be used in case of possible complaints. The notes must be kept for at least 1 year further until a possible complaint is finished.

Study of Assessment for projectsMethods• Empirically drawing on surveys 2006 and 2007:
– students of which 14% were international students and 15% was assessed individually
– Academic staff – external examiners
