While final exams allow teachers to assess students using clear criteria, continuous assessment may encourage students to develop their abilities. Which of these approaches is more effective in assessing students’ knowledge? First of all, it is worth considering how final exams help teachers to make a fast assessment. What is usually measured is something less relevant: students’ ability to memorise information through a rote learning. For instance, in an education system based on taking final exams, it is very common for students to be taught passively. Having said that, this type of assessment can be objective and easy to mark. Secondly, continuous assessment offers a more convincing way to assess students. What makes this approach particularly valuable is that it demonstrates how knowledge can be applied to different tasks. In addition, it allows students to use transferable skills. While the syllabus is a set of objectives pretending to be realistic, continuous assessment is a way to combine and evaluate all aspects of learning. To sum up, I wholeheartedly believe that continuous assessment is more effective because it connects content with visible everyday learning. Although final exams provide a useful perspective on each student, continuous assessment is more beneficial for establishing a positive learning atmosphere in class and recognising students’ progress. -Los tres chunks: continuous assessment, rote learning and transferable skills. -La cleft sentence: What is usually measured is something less relevant: students’ ability to memorise information through a rote learning. -La participle clause: Having said that, this type of assessment can be objective and easy to mark.
