LEARNING-ORIENTED ASSESSMENT IN HIGHER EDUCATION

This paper examines learning-oriented assessment in higher education and its role in supporting teaching and learning. Unlike traditional assessment focused on measuring outcomes, learning-oriented assessment emphasizes the use of assessment to promote learning during the instructional process. The study is based on a theoretical analysis of key academic literature on formative and learning-oriented assessment. The paper outlines the main principles of learning-oriented assessment, including clear assessment criteria, effective feedback and student involvement in assessment activities. Special attention is given to feedback as a key mechanism for improving learning and supporting student self-regulation. The findings indicate that learning-oriented assessment can enhance learning quality, student engagement and assessment transparency in higher education. The paper highlights the importance of integrating learning-oriented assessment into teaching practices and assessment policies.

本文探讨高等教育领域的学习导向型评估（learning-oriented assessment）及其在支撑教学活动中的作用。与传统评估以测量学习成果为核心不同，学习导向型评估强调在教学过程中借助评估环节推动学习进程。本研究基于对形成性评估（formative assessment）与学习导向型评估相关核心学术文献的理论分析。本文梳理了学习导向型评估的核心原则，包括清晰的评估标准、有效的反馈机制，以及学生参与评估活动的要求。研究特别关注反馈环节，将其视为提升学习效果、支撑学生自我调节的核心机制。研究结果表明，在高等教育领域推行学习导向型评估，可有效提升学习质量、学生参与度与评估透明度。本文强调了将学习导向型评估融入教学实践与评估政策的重要性。
