General evaluation of student’s products

At the end of May, the evaluation form, which was prepared in order to assess the students’ all

products by the main coordinator of the project, was filled for each student monthly. The goal of the

evaluation form is to obtain information about the quality degree of the students’ monthly products

and the performance of students. This year, 20 students of Daugavpils Saskanas School have

participated in FLwICT project. The evaluations of our students’ performances are given below in

details as graphics. The scale level for each item represents the least positive value 1 (Poor), 2

(Average), 3 (Above average) and 4 the most positive (Superior).

We can state that mostly students were motivated and tried to design a creative logo on time. Most

of the students published their work on Face Group. Half of the students didn’t use any computer

programme, as they got used to drawing by hand. 5 students didn’t complete their work on time as

they can’t manage their time effectively. All in all, most of the students stated that they enjoyed

doing creative tasks.

Graphics 3.1 and 3.2 show that students’ answers were rather diverse. As it was the first really

challenging task for them. It can be seen that mostly students were motivated, cooperative and

worked consistently and productively. Almost all students agreed that they improved their language

skills. However, they didn’t manage to fulfill all conditions applying to product design and content.

For example, some students didn’t use the logos or define the source. Also, some students admitted

that they didn’t research enough or take care to use proper English without reminder.

Graphic 7.1 and Graphic 7.2 show that the students who participated in the meeting in Latvia

fulfilled all the requirements for students’ work. Also students stated that they cooperated with peers

and improved their language skills. It can be seen that students were motivated, worked consistently

and productively and published their work on Face Group.

On the basis of the above data, the following conclusions can be drawn:

The students have improved their English language skills while working on the project

Mostly all students tried to use proper English while preparing the works.

Most of the participants cooperated with each other while working on the project tasks.

As the Graphics show, the students’ motivation was really high.

Mostly students tried to use computer programs properly especially while preparing

presentations and videos.

Most of the students are aware of their responsibilities in the project

Mostly all students studied consistently and productively during the first year of the project.

The vast majority of students tried to use the logos of Erasmus+ and NA, as well as the name

of the project on their products correctly.

Almost all students published their works on Face group successfully.

Thus, we can state that while working on the project students improved their language,

developed IT skills and communication skills as well as personal skills, such as responsibility

and creativity.

Problems:

Most of the students didn’t pay enough attention to define the sources on their products.

It turned out that the main problem for students while working on the project tasks is time

management. Most of the students found it difficult to complete their work on time.

Most of the students didn’t publish their products on e-twinning platform by themselves but

asked the teacher to do it.
