A Study on the Impact of Teacher-Student Collaborative Assessment Model on Students’ Engagement in the English Speaking Classroom

Abstract

Assessment of teaching and learning is an important part of education and teaching. Appropriate assessment methods can effectively improve teaching efficiency and student engagement in class. This study was designed based on the Teacher-Student Collaborative Assessment (TSCA) model. A combination of quantitative and qualitative research paradigms was used to compare the teaching practices of the experimental and control classes. SPSS analysis shows that students in the experimental and control classes have significant differences in classroom engagement, with the TSCA model producing significantly higher student engagement data than the traditional assessment model. Combined with the student interviews, the study suggests that when implementing TSCA in the English classroom, teachers can use information technology to collect typical samples and carefully select the focus of the assessment to scaffold and guide the assessment process.
