Below you will find more explanation about the didactic goals (based on Bloom's taxonomy).
With this filter, you indicate what you want to achieve with the assessment. This helps you select formats that align with your intended learning outcomes. This could include assessing knowledge, evaluating skills, or supporting the learning process through formative assessment. By making the goal explicit, the assessment format better aligns with your course outcomes and helps you make informed decisions about what you expect from students.
This filter helps you select formats that fit within the available time for students. Some formats can be administered quickly, for example during a tutorial or lecture, while others require more time for preparation, execution, and grading. Considering time ensures the assessment is feasible while maintaining quality.
This filter helps determine how many students the assessment is suitable for. Whether you want to assess individuals or assign tasks to small or large groups, this filter provides a practical starting point for selecting formats that match the scale of your course.
This filter refers to the context in which the assessment takes place, such as online, on-site, or in a hybrid format. This helps you consider practical conditions and available facilities within your teaching context.
With this filter, you indicate whether students work individually, in groups, or a combination of both. This is particularly relevant when you want to encourage collaboration or, conversely, assess individual performance.
This filter refers to how the assessment is conducted, such as written, oral, digital, or practice-based formats. Using this filter helps you select formats that align with your teaching preferences and the nature of your learning objectives.
