Selfie@ssessment as an alternative form of self-assessment at undergraduate level in higher education

Öz:
This study aimed to get ideas formed by undergraduate foreign language students about the applicability,advantages and disadvantages of „selfie@ssessment‟, which can be regarded as an alternative form of selfassessmentutilizing modern mobile phone technologies and the available Internet facilities. Underpinning thisstudy of selfie@ssessment by undergraduate students is that an increasing body of research and a good manytheoretical views acknowledge the importance of self- and group assessment by students for their performancesin the activities they carry out in their learning process. This study, without contrasts with the prevailing notionin the self-assessment by students in assessment acquis, offers a new perspective to the traditional approachundergraduate students assess themselves for their learning performances and presentations within the class. Theunique approach in this study is that students are expected to send their selfie-recorded self- or groupassessments via mobile phones or cameras enabling self-recording to their teachers through the Internet.Implemented as a research to test how undergraduate students would approach the new concept, this study isintended to bring to the fore a new dimension in self-assessment utilizing modern methods of communicationand data transmission in the light of the framework of data obtained in the area self-assessment.

Yükseköğretimde lisans seviyesinde alternatif özdeğerlendirme şekli olarak özçekimle özdeğerlendirme

Öz:
Bu çalışma lisans düzeyindeki yabancı dil öğrencilerinden, günümüz mobil telefon teknolojilerini ve var olan İnternet olanaklarını kullandıkları, alternatif bir özdeğerlendirme şekli olan özçekimle-özdeğerlendirme olgusunun uygulanabilirliği, avantajları ve dezavantajları konusunda bilgi toplamayı amaçlamaktadır. Öğrencilerin öğrenme süreçlerinde gerçekleştirdikleri etkinliklerdeki performansları için bireysel ve grup olarak özdeğerlendirme yapmaları konusunda yapılan çok sayıda araştırma ve birçok kuramsal görüş bulunması lisans öğrencilerinin özçekimle-özdeğerlendirme yapması konusunda yapılan bu çalışmaya öncülük etmiştir. Bu çalışma, değerlendirme alanındaki müktesebatta yer alan, öğrencilerin özdeğerlendirmeleri konusunda ortaya konulan anlayışla çelişki oluşturmaksızın, lisans öğrencilerinin kendilerinin öğrenme başarıları ve sınıf içi sunumları üzerinde değerlendirme yapmaları konusundaki geleneksel yaklaşıma yeni bir bakış açısı önermektedir. Bu çalışmadaki yaklaşımın özgünlüğü öğrencilerin mobil telefonu ya da özçekim yapmaya uygun kameralarla özçekimle yaptıkları bireysel ya da grup-özdeğerlendirmeleri öğretmenlerine İnternet üzerinden göndermelerinin beklenmesidir. Lisans öğrencilerinin bu yeni kavrama nasıl yaklaşacaklarını ortaya koymak için yapılan bu çalışma, özdeğerlendirme konusunda var olan veriler ışığında, modern iletişim yöntemleri ve veri iletiminden yararlanarak, özdeğerlendirme konusuna yeni bir boyut kazandırmayı amaçlamaktadır.
