Student-centered assessment practices: an integrated approach with project-based learning (PBL)

Handbook of Research on Determining the Reliability of Online Assessment and Distance Learning
Journal · pp. 213-242
Abstract

This chapter aims to describe the assessment practices used in a PBL (project-based learning) approach, adopting an integrated view, where teaching, learning, and assessment are student-centered. It explores the assessment methods, moments and participants in the teaching and learning process. Assessment procedures, criteria, and tasks will be carefully presented, as well as the benefits and constraints which they entail. Based on the significant and consolidated experience acquired with the implementation of PBL, since the year 2005, in this context, along with the scientific research produced to continuously evaluate and improve this learning approach, authors will present guidelines for the successful implementation of student-centered assessment practices in the context of PBL approaches in higher education. © 2021 by IGI Global.
