Role of Self-Assessment in Developing Self-Regulation
7. Self-Assessment in Moodle: Overview and Implementation
Instructors today use a variety of digital tools that support and facilitate the self-assessment process.
The most common methods include rubrics, journals, e-portfolios, and activities within LMS platforms such as Moodle (e.g., Assignment, Workshop, Journal).
The table below presents the uses and advantages of selected Moodle activities.
| Moodle Activity | Use When | Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| Assignment | When students submit individual work (essay, case analysis) and need to perform a rubric-based self-assessment | Simple to implement; easy to combine with instructor feedback |
| Lesson | When you want to embed reflective questions within the content | Encourages self-reflection during learning, without grading |
| Feedback | When you want to collect student self-assessment during a project or after an activity | Rapid collection of data on students’ perception of their own progress |
| Workshop | When you want to combine self-assessment with peer assessment | Systematic tracking of self-assessments and comparison with instructor ratings |
| Journal | When continuous reflection on learning is desired | Provides an individual space for written reflections and tracking progress |
AI-powered tools such as ChatGPT or GrammarlyGO also allow students to receive real-time feedback and engage more deeply in reflecting on the quality of their own work.
The latest trends include self-reflection supported by interaction with tools based on large language models (LLMs) and the use of digital quizzes for self-check and self-assessment.
