Competence aims and assessment
Competence aims after communication and interaction
The pupil is expected to be able to
- communicate and interact with people from different cultures, of different ages and in different life situations
- demonstrate relationship skills and reflect on their own behaviour
- demonstrate care and provide a service that promotes wellbeing and mastery
- explain what social and cultural competence is, and give examples of how attitudes, values and different views on humanity impact occupational practice
- discuss how conflicting opinions can be handled and test various conflict management models
- use digital resources in communication and interaction
- reflect on what digital judgement involves, critically assess sources and demonstrate the use of netiquette in their work
- use observations and communication skills in their own work
Formative assessment
The formative assessment should help promote learning and the development of competence. The pupils demonstrate and develop competence in communication and interaction when they use knowledge, skills and critical thinking to solve assignments in the programme subjects.
The teacher facilitates pupil participation and encourages the desire to learn through a variety of assignments. The teacher can give assignments that cover multiple or all the programme subjects. The teacher shall have conversations with the pupil regarding their development within communication and interaction. The pupils shall have the opportunity to express what they believe they can accomplish and reflect on their own academic development. The teacher provides guidance on further learning and adapts the education to enable the pupils to use the guidance provided to develop their competence in the programme subject.
Assessment of coursework
The grades awarded for coursework reflect the overall competence of the pupil in communication and interaction at the end of the education in the programme subject. The teacher plans and facilitates the pupils in demonstrating their competence in various ways. Using the competence aims as a starting point, the teacher shall assess how the pupil demonstrates understanding, reflection and critical thinking, and how the pupil masters challenges and solves assignments in various contexts. The teacher awards grades in communication and interaction based on the competence the pupil has demonstrated by planning, completing, assessing and documenting their own academic work.
