Learning unit contents

How do we know what our trainees or students have learned ? Highlighting the achievements notably allows to valorize them, in order to boost the trainees' self-esteem but also to facilitate their learning or their professional reintegration.
This course takes place every year within an existing training project. In close collaboration with the researchers and trainers of this project, the students participate (as the case may be) in the construction of integrated assessment tasks and their testing, in facilitating some sessions of evaluation ("trace" seminars, for example, in the context of competency-based approaches), or in data collecting involving learners in the associative or school sectors.

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

This course will mainly target the development of the second competence of the competence grid for the ULiège Master in educational sciences, competence slightly modified (by the lecturer) as follows : 
"Run efficient activities or programs in education and training (they should answer the needs of the target public, offer them satisfaction and foster learning) 

  • mobilising scientific (pedagogical) and technological knowledge in coherence with the targeted contexts and publics ;
  • evaluating each trainees' progresses, using pertinent tools (adapted to contexts and publics) ;
  • regulating the actions on the basis of observation and analysis data, exploited in a critical way."

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

Models and analysis frameworks proposed in the "Partim 1" of this same course.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The students will work individually or in small groups.
They will discover the project, then participate in the development / animation of an integrative evaluation task, or in data collection amongst trainees or students (case based evaluation, "traces" seminar or other methods).
The evaluation tasks concerned will be authentic (students or trainees in the Liège surroundings).

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)

Blended learning


Additional information:

Face-to-face seminars, possibility of a field activity and some home work. In the event of health measures limiting personal contact, seminars will be organized synchronously at a distance. The field activity, in these cases, would be reviewed in order to respect the health safety instructions (example: interviewing a student remotely, or participating in an online seminar with highher education students from the chosen section)

Recommended or required readings

To be precised at the beginning of the course.

Assessment methods and criteria

Participation in the training activities is mandatory in order to access evaluation for this course.
Through a written report (comprising annexes), the students will be asked to demonstrate their development of the second competence from the ULiège Master in educational sciences (see upper, as slightly modified by the lecturer).
A specific seminar will help them build up that report.
In cohérence with the idea of continuous evaluation, some of the intermediate productions might also be noted and taken into account in the final grade, together with the report.
