Soorituspõhiseid

Soorituspõhiseid refers to a concept in Estonian education and training that emphasizes performance-based assessment and learning. This approach focuses on what learners can actually do and demonstrate, rather than solely on theoretical knowledge acquisition. It means that evaluation is tied to the successful completion of specific tasks or a set of skills.

In practice, soorituspõhiseid methodologies involve designing learning activities and assessments that mirror real-world situations or professional requirements. This could include practical examinations, project-based work, simulations, or portfolio development where the learner's ability to apply knowledge and skills is the primary measure of success. The goal is to ensure that individuals have not only understood the material but can also effectively utilize it in practical contexts.

This educational philosophy is often contrasted with more traditional, knowledge-based approaches. While knowledge is still important, the emphasis shifts to the demonstrable application of that knowledge. Soorituspõhiseid learning and assessment aim to produce competent individuals who are well-prepared for employment or further specialized studies, as their achievements are validated through tangible results and observable competencies. This can be applied across various levels of education and vocational training.
