Self-evaluation
Self-evaluation is a key part of the learning process
and of the development of the Learning to learn Key
Competence. It is important that the students realize
that when they are evaluating themselves you are
not testing them; instead, self-evaluation should be
viewed as a key motivating factor, encouraging the
students to think about their learning and to take
ownership of their language learning. Lesson 10
of each Activity Book unit gently introduces the
students to the concept of self-evaluation. In these
lessons, the students review the unit and remember
what they have learned. They tick the sentences that
they think best reflect their work throughout that
unit. In this way, they are able to keep a record of their
own progress.
These can contribute to the creation of an ‘English
Portfolio’ by students, based on the guidelines of the
European Language Portfolio.
English Language Portfolio

As a method of self-evaluation and a source of
motivation for the students, we have included several
photocopiable pages for the development of a Bright
Ideas Portfolio, personalized for each student.
