This week, I led a seminar where students had to rework a history quiz question to support a competence to be assessed according to the curriculum's objectives. Yesterday's group told me that they enjoyed the exercise.

Today's group reacted somewhat differently: One student said that she felt they had been thrown into the "deep end", and many complained that they were unprepared. Apparently nobody had taught them anything about assessment before (later I heard from a colleague that this wasn't quite true).

I suggested that this is why we were doing this exercise. Also, they were hardly in the deep end, since they weren't assessing actual pupils. I wonder how they would prefer to learn new skills, if a hypothetical exercise (which didn't even influence their grades) threw them off like that.

That being said, there were also students in the group that were eager to discuss assessment and genuinely interested in the topic. I wish I had more time for that, and I regret not asking for permission to use their tasks as research material.

Now I'm curious how tomorrow's group will react!
