Ice breaking method:

Self-assessment method. We can ask any question concerning student's, colleague's mood, thoughts, attitude, feeling after lesson, after working in group, feelings before and after the lesson. Offer them some toys, pictures, draw a picture, items to choose and then describe and answer the question. It makes situation friendly, informal, good to know their minds.

Wilma - electronic register of all Finland schools. Marks, schedule, students formative as comments, letters for parents, study programs.

Self and peer assessment method:

Teacher gives students group work, students do it and then T hands out a paper to each student where 3-4 questions are written. Questions are connected to student's group work behavior, presentation ... The questions are written in lines and student' names are in columns. For self as one column should be: self assessment where. A student will evaluate himself or herself.

We did this method themselves as students. Group work task was making up 4 types of assessment for 1 course, subject over the period of 1-2 months. Assessment types: pre-assignment task (before the course starts), assessment in the beginning of the course (on the first lesson), ass during the course, final assessment.
