METHODS OF DEVELOPING STUDENTS’ SELF-ASSESSMENT SKILLS

The great interest in self-assessment in the pedagogical literature stems from changes in the concept of teaching and learning. The formation of self-assessment skills in of students is a very complex process. However, this mechanism, which is applied from the easy stage to the difficult one, can be achieved in a step-by-step manner. The reality is that self-assessment is rarely used. In some cases, its objectivity is questioned, because most students do not understand the essence of self-assessment and tend to positively evaluate the questions and tasks asked for this purpose. For successful self-assessment, the teacher must have sufficient knowledge of this method of assessment, its means, types, and the requirements for its organization. Self-assessment should be considered an integral part of the learning process and should be planned and systematic. Methodological recommendations should be developed for teachers to have in-depth knowledge of self-assessment, and should be included in the methodological resources, which are an important component of 
the textbook set. Secondly, students need to become accustomed to self-assessment and become an important component of this learning
process.
