To Assess Students’ Self-Awareness in Moral Education in China: Classroom Assessment Tool Design and Use

Abstract

Although the comprehensive application of various assessment methods is emphasized in the curriculum reform, the old traditional assessment mode is deeply rooted in the minds of most moral teachers, so the current teaching assessment still tends to be single. Through the pilot study in grade 1 of a middle school in Hangzhou, China, it is found that the self-awareness of middle school students has a strong correlation with gender, class cadre tenure, family background, and achievement, and there are some problems in the process of middle school students’ self-assessment Angle is single, self-assessment is lower than others’ assessment. Teachers should use reflective tools to improve teaching, adjust students’ psychology, strengthen communication between home and school, expand the influence of moral education, realize the integration of teaching, learning, and assessment, and make moral education classroom truly full of life vitality.
