Actor and Sapper in the Classroom: A Method of Evaluation and Students’ Results

In the presented study, researchers consider if the evaluation method impacts early education students’ results and their beliefs about themselves. The results prove significant relation between the method of evaluation and students’ results (with the same questions). The reliability of evaluation depends on the type of diagnosed skills (language or mathematical skills). In an oral examination in the presence of the class, children achieve better results in the linguistic test. Higher scores on mathematical tests were noted in the case of written exams. Research conclusions could be used as a hint for early education teachers and an interesting area for other studies and consideration.
