Análisis de los métodos de evaluación utilizados en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje del francés en contexto universitario.

Abstract

Throughout history, the importance of evaluation and its role in the teaching and learning process has been widely discussed. Actually, we can see a paradigm shift about evaluative processes, where the action of evaluating is not only to judge or measure, but an objective and organized procedure of reflection, diagnosis, and feedback that contributes to improving the student performance and curricular processes.This qualitative research, tries through a case study, to analyze the assessment methods used in the basic level of the French courses of the Pamplona University with the aim of knowing how the evaluation and feedback are conceives arnd carried and determine its impact (whashback effect) on teaching and learning processes.The sample consisted of 3 teachers from the French courses and 16 students from the French Elementary I courses and French Elementary II courses (level A1 and A2) who come from different regions of the country. A total of 4 students for each group was selected voluntarily to participate in this research.
