Getting Progress Test Scores in Online Learning Process

Progress test scores are the best evidence to evaluate students’ learning performances in the learning process. Progress tests can be taken by students when taking both offline and online classes. Due to the pandemic of the Covid-19, online learning becomes a must in many countries and territories all over the world. To our knowledge, there are many ways for students to get progress test scores in class, such as: doing oral tests by answering teacher’s face-to-face questions, completing questions in fifteen-minute test papers, etc. The current experimental study, aiming at changing the ways to give progress test scores during online classes, has been conducted with 41 students at Grade 11 in a high school in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam. Joining online classes on the platform of Google Meet or Zoom, students can get progress test scores throughout the lesson during every online class time by answering teacher’s questions orally, doing required tasks of the lessons, brainstorming some advanced ideas related to the target lessons or just giving comments on other students’ answers. Learners’ scores are compared between offline class results and online class results. The findings indicated improvement in students’ learning performances. However, the results only obvious and convinceable when a teacher is the supervisor of the examined class in two consecutive years.
