Self assessment in the methods class.
Abstract
This paper discusses a self assessment activity in a methods course for preservice English teachers. Students are asked to strategize responses to writing assignments of their own design and critically assess the quality of their assignments. Ultimately, students fail to move beyond practical considerations in their assessments. Examination of methods students' struggle with critical self assessment is necessary to effectively train teachers for reflective practice.
