Аннотация : В статье рассматривается роль формативного оценивания в
развитии учебной автономии учащихся на уроках английского языка как
иностранного. Анализируются теоретические основы формативного
оценивания, его связь с саморегулируемым обучением, а также эффективность
обратной связи, самооценки, взаимооценки, портфолио и цифровых
инструментов. Результаты показывают, что систематическое формативное
оценивание повышает метакогнитивную осознанность учащихся и способствует
развитию самостоятельного изучения языка.
Ключевые слова: формативное оценивание; учебная автономия; обратная
связь; самооценка; взаимооценка; саморегулируемое обучение; метакогниция;
портфолио; цифровые инструменты.
