STAR platform's new and enhanced functions:
Newly launched section: "Student Self-selected Assessments"
Students can select relevant assessment tasks according to their own interests and learning targets:
- Language subjects: Papers based on topics and divided into Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing tasks
- Mathematics: Papers based on units organised by school level or key stage
Upon the completion of assessments, students can obtain instant assessment results on computer-marked questions to better understand their strengths and weaknesses.
Teachers can view students' results from the self-selected assessments so as to provide guidance and support. Additionally, teachers can give feedback to students' answers on open-ended questions.
Remark:
The corresponding paper review and report functions are similar to teacher's assignments, making it easy for students and teachers who are familiar with the STAR platform to adopt.
