portfellihindamisele

Portfellihindamisele is the Estonian term for portfolio assessment. It is a method of evaluating a student's learning and progress over a period of time by collecting a representative sample of their work. This work can include a variety of assignments, projects, reflections, and other educational artifacts. The key principle is that a portfolio provides a more holistic and authentic picture of a student's understanding and development than a single test or examination.

The process of portfellihindamisele typically involves students selecting pieces of work that demonstrate their learning, often with guidance from the educator. They may also include reflections on their learning journey, explaining their choices and what they have learned from each piece. Educators then review the portfolio to assess not only the final products but also the student's growth, their ability to self-assess, and their understanding of the learning objectives.

Portfellihindamisele can be used for various purposes, including formative assessment to guide ongoing learning, summative assessment to evaluate overall achievement, and as a tool for student-led conferences. It is often employed in subjects that require creative expression, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, such as art, writing, and project-based learning. The focus is on the process of learning as much as the final outcome.
