Studien tar avstamp i praktikens frågor. Svensklärare och elever på gymnasieskolan har intervjuats för att skönja uppfattningar och erfarenheter om bedömningsmatrisers tillämpning i undervisningen. Studiens resultat har diskuterats ur ett OTL-perspektiv. Tre lärare deltog i studien och enskilda semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med samtliga. Sex elever intervjuades i fokusgrupper uppdelade om tre elever i varje.  Resultatet presenteras genom tematisk analys av transkriberade intervjuer.  Studiens resultat visar att lärarna och eleverna delar liknande uppfattningar om och av bedömningsmatrisers tillämpning i undervisning. Bedömningsmatriser ansågs ha både för- och nackdelar som är av betydande roll dels för lärarens yrkesutövning, dels för elevens lärande. Bedömningsmatrisens största utmaning sågs av både lärare och elever som för abstrakt för att eleverna ska förstå skillnaden i kvaliteter mellan de olika nivåerna. Den största möjligheten med matrisanvändning uppfattades vara en tydlig kartläggning av elevens kunskaper. / The study is based on practice questions. Swedish teachers and students in upper secondary school have been interviewed to discern perceptions and experiences about the application of scoring rubrics in teaching. The results of the study have been discussed from an OTL perspective. Three teachers participated in the study and individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with all of them. Six students were interviewed in focus groups divided into three students in each group. The result of the study is presented through thematic analysis of transcribed interviews. The results of the study show that teachers and students share similar views about and of the application of scoring rubrics in teaching. Scoring rubrics were considered to have both advantages and disadvantages that are of significant role for both the teacher's professional practice and for the student's learning. The biggest shortcoming of the scoring rubric was seen by both teachers and students as too abstract for the students to understand the difference in qualities between the different levels. The biggest advantage of the rubric was perceived to be a clear mapping of the student's knowledge.

Syftet med denna magisteruppsats är att undersöka elevers uppfattningar och upplevelser av bedömningsmatriser i svenska. Uppsatsen är ett led i ett skolutvecklingsprojekt om kunskapssyn, bedömning och IUP, Individuell utvecklingsplan, på Fäladsgården, en 6-9-skola, i Lund . Med undersökningen vill jag få fördjupad förståelse för hur eleverna uppfattar och använder matriser och vad de anser sig behöva för att uppfatta lärarresponsen som god. Elva kvalitativa intervjuer med elever i skolår sju och nio genomfördes under december 2008 och januari 2009. Det är dessa elevers uppfattningar som tillsammans med litteratur i ämnet ligger till grund för arbetet.Resultatet av undersökningen visar att elevernas uppfattningar om bedömningsmatrisen i grunden är positiva, men att de efterfrågar kompletterande kommentarer till den. De önskar också mer tid för att bli väl förtrogna med innebörden i matrisen. Uppsatsens slutsatser, som har genererat en teori om aktivitetens betydelse och en arbetsmodell, kan väl peka ut inriktningen på det fortsatta utvecklingsarbetet på skolan även i andra ämnen än svenska och på andra skolor som använder matriser för ökat lärande. / The purpose of this essay is to examine pupils’ perceptions and experiences of scoring rubrics in Swedish. The essay is part of a of school development project focusing on knowledge, assessment and on the Individual Development Plan, at Fäladsgården, a compulsory school, in Lund, Sweden. In the survey, I want to achieve a deeper understanding of how pupils perceive and use scoring rubrics, and what they need to obtain a constructive feedback.Eleven qualitative interviews with pupils in school year seven and nine were carried out in December 2008 and January 2009. These pupils’ views are the basis for the paper.The results of the survey show that the pupils’ perceptions of the scoring rubrics are basically positive, but that they are asking for additional comments on it. They also want more time to familiar with the meaning of the scoring rubrics. The conclusions of this essay, which have generated a theory of the importance of the activity and a working model, may well indicate the continued development of this particular school and other schools, which use scoring rubrics for enhanced learning.

The purpose of this qualitative study was to describe and analyze the ways Swedish high school teachers deal with self- and peer assessment which can be defined as arrangement for learners to consider and specify the level, value, or quality of a product or performance of other equal-status learners (Topping, 2009). Products to be assessed can include writing, oral presentations, portfolios, test performance, or other skilled behaviors. Self and peer assessment can be summative or formative. This study has drawn on data from semi-structured interviews with five teachers. The results cast light on how students help each other plan their learning, identify their strengths and weaknesses, target areas for remedial action, and develop other personal and professional skills. Findings indicate that teachers think that the formative assessment is a successful way of working, that they can see that the students develop on many different levels. Finally, this study gives an illustration of how formative and summative purposes is perceived and understood by teachers and is a contribution to further discussions about (educative) assessment.

In this study, I investigated the interactions between multiple intelligences and performance of learners in open-ended digital learning tasks, and to suggest possible approaches to the teaching and learning process using computers in Tanzania. With the current introduction of computers in the education system in Tanzania, the qualities of instruction and learner participation in learning computer application skills and achievement have not necessarily shown improvement (Nelson, Post,&Bickel, 2003; Tilya, 2003). It is imperative for computer teachers to know the pedagogical strategies that can help them use the current technology effectively. Researchers in instructional design have suggested instructional methods that incorporate methods that encourage the use of learner-centered instruction, incorporating activity oriented methods, and problem solving that are designed around real-world problems (Huba&Freed, 2000). Learners will be able use their knowledge effectively, reveal their uniqueness as learners, and learn computer application skills in a social setting (Gardner, 1983; Wiggins, 1993, 1998; Teele, 2000; Huba&Freed, 2000). The theory of multiple intelligences by Howard Gardner (1983) was used as the theoretical framework for this study. The theory postulates that that everybody has at least eight intelligences which reflect different ways of interacting with the world. In an effort to achieve quality learning, learning must be based on multiple approaches with a series of activities which are authentic in nature and have to be completed by the learners. The study was conducted in Tanzania using a qualitative research design. Four secondary schools were selected and 40 learners doing computer studies course participated in the study. Four intelligences from the theory of multiple intelligences were assessed: logic-mathematical, verbal-linguistic, visual-spatial and interpersonal intelligences. Assessment was done using performance assessment procedures. The findings indicated that there are distinctive intelligence profiles apart from the four intelligences that were investigated in this study. Despite the intelligence profiles of the learners, didactical issues that will enhance ICT adoption in the education environment are important. These include the use of authentic tasks, performance assessment to acknowledge learners unique performance abilities across several intelligences and teachers familiarization in the use of performance assessment procedures. / Thesis (PhD (Curriculum Studies))--University of Pretoria, 2008. / Curriculum Studies / unrestricted
