Formative assessment

The formative assessment should help promote learning and the development of competence. The pupils demonstrate and develop competence in selection of education when they reflect on their self-development and career learning, and demonstrate sound judgement when discussing ethical dilemmas. The pupils also demonstrate competence in selection of education by describing education and employment opportunities, and using the knowledge to discuss their own future career plans. The pupils develop competence in selection of education when they progressively use different strategies and technical terminology to express their specialised competence, individually and in collaboration with others.

The teacher creates a teaching plan that facilitates learning to highlight the pupil's competence in different ways. Through a variety of learning situations and dialogue with the teacher, each individual pupil becomes aware of what they can master. The pupils receive feedback that enhances learning, and motivates and guides them to work more on the topics of self-development, the education system and employment.
