Educational institutions in different countries have different assessment systems. In Russia, schools, as well as higher and secondary educational institutions, use a five-point assessment system.

Most Russian schools have been using a five-point grading system for decades. It is familiar to both students, parents, and teachers. However, questions about reform of the assessment system are now increasingly being raised.

The five-point system is to determine student knowledge using assessments such as: 5 – excellent– used in case of deep assimilation of the material, convincing answer, absence of errors, 4 – good– is given in the case when the material has been mastered, but minor inaccuracies were made when completing the task, 3-satisfactory– used when there is some knowledge that the student cannot accurately express, makes mistakes, 2 – unsatisfactory- indicates a poor understanding of the material and 1. In practice, such a rating as 1 is practically not used, therefore there is no specific definition for it. Theoretically, a score of 1 indicates a lack of understanding of the material.

Another feature of this system is that the final grade cannot be given as 1 or 2. Often, instead of giving the student an unsatisfactory grade, the teacher offers to correct it immediately. Pluses or minuses are also often added to the numbers. They are also used only for intermediate assessments.

The assessment criteria are the student’s level of knowledge, as well as comparison with the template for completing certain tasks. The number of tasks completed, the breadth of the answer, and the subject also influence the determination of the final grade. There are also separate selection criteria for written and oral responses. Often, the teacher’s personal emotions influence the assessment.

Pros of the five-point grading system

• Five-point grading system familiar and familiar to many. Therefore, parents and students do not have questions about assessment criteria. This is the main advantage of this system.
• It is also an advantage sufficient simplicity of evaluation criteria. Unlike other assessment methods that use a larger number of ratings, the five-point scale does not include many criteria by which the depth of understanding of the material is determined. This takes less time for the student to answer, as well as for the teacher to check the work.
• In order to determine the correct grade using a ten-point grading system, the teacher needs to ask the student many additional questions. At the same time, the five-point system suggests a specific level of knowledge for each assessment.
• The presence of a large number of assessments blurs the lines between them. So, for example, in a five-point grading system there is a big difference between 5 and 3. If we take a ten-point grading system, then the difference between 5 and 7, for example, is difficult to identify not only for the student, but also for the teacher.

Disadvantages of the five-point system

• Currently, there is increasing debate about the need to reform the assessment system. Many educational institutions, primarily private schools, are switching to other knowledge assessment systems.
• The main disadvantages are the non-use in practice of such assessments as 2 and Such assessments indicate poor mastery of the material, or even a lack of knowledge on some topics. Therefore, they cannot be used as a final assessment.
• Using ratings such as 5-, 3+ reduces the accuracy of the result. Such grades are also not used as final grades, but are often given as intermediate grades. A rating scale with a wide range of ratings allows you to evaluate knowledge more specifically and objectively.
• The big disadvantage of the five-point scale is that it differs from many modern methods of assessing knowledge. The most striking example is the Unified State Exam. It is compulsory for graduates of every school; the child’s further education depends on its results. At the same time, the grading scale for the Unified State Exam is 100 points. Therefore, students and parents often have problems analyzing exam results, since they are accustomed to a five-point scale.
• Many experts call the disadvantage of all scoring systems lack of assessment of student progress. Scores are awarded for specific work only and strict criteria are used. In this case, the student’s previous level of knowledge is not taken into account. This prevents the teacher from assessing the student's progress. He is forced to evaluate only specific work, taking into account uniform criteria. Also, when grading, in addition to knowledge, the student’s behavior and his relationship with the teacher are often assessed. Therefore, the assessment does not accurately characterize the depth of a student’s knowledge.

The education system undergoes many changes every year. Therefore, the five-point knowledge assessment system is becoming less and less relevant. Experts have been arguing for years about the need to reform it.

Most foreign countries use other rating systems, which also have their own advantages and disadvantages. Today, the issue of abolishing any point system at all is acute, since grades often become a reason for severe stress for students. At the same time, assessments cannot accurately characterize the child’s level of knowledge, and also do not take into account his progress.

In Soviet times, a five-point system for assessing student knowledge was developed. Its criteria were clearly stated in a special regulation and brought to the attention of students, parents and, of course, teachers. And at the present stage of development of the Russian educational system, the need has arisen for its modernization. Let's take a closer look at this system.

Features of the modern assessment system

The task of the teacher is to develop in schoolchildren the desire for self-education, to create in students the need to acquire knowledge and acquire skills in mental activity. But to evaluate such student activity, a 5-point system is not enough. Therefore, the problem of finding new evaluation criteria is currently particularly relevant.

There are several reasons for this:

1. First of all, the five-point rating system is not suitable for determining the level of general cultural skills and special knowledge. And without them, it is impossible for school graduates to fully adapt to the realities of society.
2. In addition, there is an active development of information systems, the possibility of individual growth in mastering which is also difficult to evaluate at 5 points.

Graduate Requirements

Real creators should emerge from the walls of educational institutions, capable of taking responsibility, able to solve practical and theoretical problems of varying degrees of complexity. And the classic five-point system in school has long been outdated, since it is not compatible with the requirements of the new federal standards that were introduced at the primary and secondary levels of schooling.

What determines the effectiveness of training?

Conclusion

Let us repeat that the five-point assessment system, the criteria of which were developed in Soviet times, has lost its relevance and has been recognized by leading teachers as untenable and unsuitable for new educational standards. It is necessary to modernize it, to use new criteria for analyzing the personal growth of schoolchildren and their educational achievements.

Only if the marking scale is brought into line with the basic pedagogical principles can we talk about taking into account the individuality of each child. Among the priorities that should be taken into account when modernizing the assessment system, we highlight the use of multi-level gradation of grades, thanks to which the educational achievements of schoolchildren will be adequately assessed.

Many countries have already abandoned the five-point rating system, recognizing such an option as untenable for a modern system. The issue of changing it in Russia is currently being decided. Thus, according to the Federal State Educational Standard, traditional points have already been removed from elementary schools so that children can develop and improve themselves without experiencing psychological discomfort.

The school assessment system is an integral element of the educational process. In fact, this is the basic criterion for determining the level of mastery of educational material. Most Russian parents are familiar and understand the 5-point system, because we remember it from our childhood. Abroad, new systems are relevant - 10-, 12- and even 100-point. This trend has not bypassed domestic education: some schools, in addition to the usual 5-point scale, have introduced a grading system on a 10-point scale.

Which system is better? What to look for when choosing between the old and new format for assessing knowledge? And how do children react to assessments of their progress in general? Let's talk about this below.

Evaluation as an influencing factor

From early childhood we go through the process of socialization, that is, integration into the existing society. The role of connecting links between the individual and society is played by the so-called agents of socialization: first, one’s own family, and then a kindergarten, school, university, and work team. But if the family, as a rule, loves us for who we are, then the affection of other agents still needs to be earned. Moreover, these agents constantly evaluate us.

In kindergarten, the teacher evaluates the child’s behavior and progress: how he spends his time, how he interacts with other children and staff, how easy it is for him to do group games, tasks and exercises. This is how children get used to being assessed - they begin to understand that their behavior is constantly compared with certain reference values ​​(“pretty smart”, “not too obedient”, “very sociable”). They are then assessed at school, but here the emphasis is on the level of knowledge acquired from the curriculum - the student receives low or high marks. This experience is extrapolated to all future social life. At the university, a former student becomes an excellent student, a poor student or an average student, and at work, accordingly, a good, bad or mediocre employee.

The puberty period of development occurs precisely during the school years, therefore the school grading system has a special influence on the development of the child. Today the situation in schools is ambiguous: some educational institutions use the traditional 5-point system in Russia, others are gradually moving to a 10-point system, and some even use them in parallel. For example, in elementary grades, students are given grades from 1 to 5, and in middle and high grades - from 1 to 10.

5-point system

The five-point grading system demonstrates how the student has mastered the educational material. Moreover, each quantitative assessment corresponds to a certain semantic characteristic.

• the system is traditional and familiar, and therefore understandable to both students and parents;
• good grades (in particular, A's) significantly increase a student's self-esteem.

• assessment criteria do not make it possible to accurately and objectively understand a student’s knowledge (hence the widespread use of non-existent grades like “4+”, “3-”, etc.);
• the system does not objectively determine the student’s academic progress (even if the student made fewer mistakes than last time, or answered correctly but made a mistake in writing, his grade will not change);
• poor grades negatively affect the student’s self-esteem and can cause serious psychological trauma;
• very often the assessment is determined not by the educational success and real achievements of the child, but by the behavior and subjective attitude of the teacher.

10-point system

The main difference of the 10-point system is a deeper classification and detail of the student’s achievements. In addition to the level of mastery of the material, such a scale also shows the qualitative characteristics of educational activities.

The system is called 10-point, although in fact it contains 11 grades - from 0 to 10. A grade of “0” is provided for those cases when the student simply refuses to answer a question or complete a task. But at the same time, the assessment cannot characterize the level of mastery of the material, which is why it was not reflected in the name of the scale.

• expanded gradation allows you to more clearly and objectively determine the current level of knowledge;
• the scale allows you to analyze the student’s mental abilities, assess involvement in the educational process and detect his weaknesses;
• the system is psychologically comfortable - ratings from 5 points are already positive;
• The uncomfortable gap for students between excellent students and poor students is reduced: all students who receive from 7 to 10 points are successful by definition.

• the system does not solve traditional problems of school education: psychological trauma of poor students, subjective attitude of teachers, etc.;
• Parents are confused about the new scores and do not always understand what this or that score indicates.

Both systems cannot be called ideal, but it is obvious that the 10-point scale is still more comfortable for students and makes the process of assessing knowledge at least a little more adequate. Therefore, if there is a choice, it is better to send the child to a school where grades are given from 1 to 10. It is optimal if the child gets used to such a system from the first grade and studies according to it until graduation. An abrupt transition from one scale to another, which is sometimes practiced in domestic schools, only brings additional discomfort to children.

Interesting fact: The Finnish school system, considered the best in the world, has abandoned grades altogether. According to the Finnish Ministry of Education, children study in order to obtain and use knowledge, and not for the sake of good grades. The innovative approach has already proven its effectiveness: Finnish graduates are breaking all success records, and their parents are calm about the psychological health of their children.

- Rustam Ivanovich, why is the 5-point grading system criticized?

In my opinion, one of its main drawbacks is that the system suppresses initiative and does not motivate children to learn. After all, as often happens: one child gets used to being constantly given C's and doesn't strive for anything else, while another, out of habit, is constantly given A's, and he also relaxes and is happy with everything.

In relation to the child, the 5-point system is repressive, and for parents it is a deception, because it does not reflect the real picture of knowledge. The system itself is biased. What are three and four - in different schools, with different teachers? The content of the assessment very often does not match for different schoolchildren from different cities.

And the system is divorced from life - we don’t encounter it either before school or after graduation. This rating scale does not even coincide with the Unified State Examination result.

- Your school uses so-called route sheets instead of grades. What is it?

A route sheet is a list of tasks indicating the level of difficulty and a note of completion. Children receive them weekly. And you can clearly see who is doing what.

This is an honest and understandable assessment for children; it reflects the real picture. There can be no offense or humiliation here - only the result. Done? - Yes or no.

The level of tasks is different, which means that weak children will have the opportunity to choose something easier, while strong children will have the opportunity to choose something more difficult, so that they remain motivated to learn and develop. If something doesn’t work out for someone, there will be a second attempt, and a third...

As a director, I work not only with children, but also with teachers, and I can say: teachers are sometimes more difficult to organize for work than even children. But if you apply the same approach, even the slowest adults begin to achieve results - let alone children.

- But there is a mandatory certification that requires grades...

According to the education law, a school can conduct intermediate certification in any form. The state only requires us to have formal assessments in grades 4, 9 and 11.

In elementary school we have been working on route sheets for about 8 years, and starting this year we are switching to them in grades 5-6. In high school, of course, we give grades on a 5-point scale. True, it’s a little different. Our assessment system is cumulative - for 4 lessons: so that the assessment is more thorough, not delivered hastily, not “in the heat of the moment.”

Is the route sheet system convenient for parents? And what can children say when they are asked how they learn?

Parents look at the route sheets, where next to the tasks it is indicated whether they have been completed or not. Roughly speaking, the child answered literature questions, wrote an essay, and learned a fragment of the work by heart...

One might assume that parents are conservative: that is, they advocate maintaining the 5-point system they are accustomed to. But that's not true. For parents, it is not grades that are important, but the result, expressed in a simple and understandable form. That's why our parents support us.

- Can your system be extended to other schools?

Of course, I understand: you cannot come to a public school and say that from September 1 we will stop giving grades. It's like taking money and canceling it...

Refusal to evaluate is a consequence of the changes that occur in school, when the style of working with children, the manner of conducting lessons, and their content changes.
