Self-assessment of Role-plays to Improve Speaking

Abstract

This innovation consists of carrying out self-assessment of role-plays to enhance speaking in the students. It will work as an instrument for students to assess their role-plays and reflect on their strengths and weaknesses towards the language in order to improve their speaking while interacting with others. Learners will be encouraged to self-assess their work three times. To do this, the teacher will model the correct application of it and present the criteria from which students will be evaluated on. That means that students will be trained to use the checklist during classes so that they can, at the end, self-assess their summative task independently and effectively.
