Abstract

Student assessment is a key component in the teaching process. Not only the diagnostic of students' academic achievements but also their motivation and success in school depends on its effectiveness. Assessment is in a dynamic relationship with reflection, which allows for better planning, organizing and conducting teaching and learning. Therefore, assessment must be conducted with a variety of methods and techniques, including non-traditional, to perform its ascertaining, diagnostic, motivational and prognostic functions in the learning process.

This article discusses the nature and pedagogical possibilities of some innovative methods and techniques for assessment and reflection. Many of them are used successfully in the work of very effective teachers but are not yet applied in mass practice.
