Methods and Tools of Assessment in a Digital Environment

Visual representations of knowledge, such as infographics, allow students to synthesize information and communicate key messages in a concise and creative format. Recommended tools: Canva, Piktochart, Genially, and Venngage.

Online presentations, whether recorded (videos) or delivered live, are particularly useful for developing communication skills and the ability to present arguments within a defined time, structure, and with a specific audience in mind. Teachers can assess these using rubrics and combine them with discussion forums.

Recommendation:

When assessing creative tasks, it is essential to use clear criteria and rubrics so that students understand how their work will be evaluated before they begin creating it. Rubrics also support transparency and clarity of grading after the assessment process.
