education INTRODUCTION THE REASON TO CHOOSE THE TOPIC 1.1 Originated from the requirements of the general education program In the general education program promulgated in 2018, assessment aim to provide accurate, timely, and valuable information about the achievement of the program's output standards and the progress of students The feedback will help teachers guiding learning activities, adjust teaching activities and contribute to improving the quality of education 1.2 Originated from the role of formative assessment in education Formative assessment (FA) is a type of assessment that takes place throughout the teaching process in order to receive feedback (representative) about students' learning activities, thereby improving the quality of teaching and learning Many studies show that the connection between teaching and FA is the foundation of success in teaching, promoting learning interest and capacity development for students In teaching Biology, Biology competencies are developed through a long process, accumulated from the implementation of the requirements to be achieved in each lesson FA plays an important role in motivating learners to achieve the goal of each lesson, thereby contributing to the creation of a regular updating information channel on the development of the learners' Biology competence 1.3 Originated from the requirement to improve formative assessment skills for pre-service teachers Teaching practice in Vietnam for many years has shown that summative assessment (SA) has prevailed The main reason comes from teachers' inadequate awareness of the role and method of assessment, especially FA Training students FA skills (FASs) is necessary to create a solid foundation for teaching innovation in general and assessment activities in particular at high schools 2.RESEARCH PURPOSES Determining the structure of FASs, building and applying the training process for students of these pedagogical schools of this skill in teaching Biology

Appendix, the main content of the thesis consists of chapters: Chapter Theoretical and practical basis of the research Chapter Training pre-service teachers for formative assessment skills in Biology teaching at high school Chapter Pedagogical Experiment CONTENT CHAPTER THEORETICAL BASIS AND PRACTICE OF THE RESEARCH 1.1 LITERATURE REVIEW 1.1.1 Reseach on formative assessment 1.1.1.1 In the world The definition of FA of the authors Black and William (1998), Brookhart (1992), Popham (2008), Bell (2001) all agree on specific points: providing feedbacks to improve learning and teaching quality In 2003, Black and William proposed a model for implementing FA consisting of five strategies to address the central issues of FA Many others have also deeply explored the role of FA in general and teaching practice in particular subject, the practice of applying assessment as well as the factors affecting the teacher's ability to perform FA 1.1.1.2 Vietnam Many studies on the status of assessment in high schools such as Hayden and Lam Quang Thiep (2010), Dao Hoa Mai et al (2013), Hayden and Le Ngoc Lan (2013) show the dominance of SA Research on FA is mainly in the direction of applying it to the practice of teaching subjects, such as: Tran Thi Ngoc Anh et al (2020), Nguyen Phuong Chi (2021), Ha Thi Le Na et al (2021) 1.1.2 Reseach on formative assessment skills 1.1.2.1 In the world Studies on the FA competency criteria and standards required of teachers such as Stiggins (1999), Brookhart (2011) Raising awareness and ability to implement FA for teachers and pedagogical students is interested by many authors, such as the studies of Sluijsmans et al (2002), Maclellan (2004), Graham (2005), Otero & Nathan (2002) 2008), Buck (2010), Lovorn (2011) 1.1.2.1 Vietnam Research on the current situation of teacher training in schools shows that there are still many outstanding problems that need to be overcome in terms of time allocation between knowledge blocks, practice time, internship, teaching methods of lecturers (Hamano, 2008; Hoa, 2007; Hoang & Ninh, 2017) Many studies have proposed and used processes, methods and tools to develop teaching skills for pedagogical biology students (Duy, 1999; Mai, 2016; Nhu, 2014) Studies with the aim of developing assessment capacity of pedagogical students have received a lot of attention in recent years: Dao Hoa and Pham Nhung (2014), Nguyen Thi Viet Nga (2016), Khuu Thuan Vu (2017), Pham Thi Phuong Anh (2020) 1.2 THEORETICAL BASIS 1.2.1 Formative assessment 1.2.1.1 General issues of assessment in education a.Definition: Assessment is the process of collecting and processing information about learners' learning process to make decisions to achieve certain learning outcomes b.Principles of assessment: Assessment must ensure the following principles: ensuring validity, reliability, comprehensiveness and flexibility, and development c.Assessment implementation process: Assessment activities in teaching follow a process of stages: planning, implementation, data processing and use of assessment results d.Assessment methods: There are 03 main methods to collect information in the assessment, including: writing method, question and answer method and observation method e.Evaluation tool: Assesment tool is a kind of means used to collect assessment information Several tools are used in the assessment, including: questions, exercises, checklists, rating scales, rubrics, trivia sheets, test/exit cards 1.2.2.2 Definition of formative assessment FA is an activity that takes place throughout teaching process in order to provide feefback for both teachers and students to improve academic achievement, students' personal abilities as well as teachers' teaching activities 1.2.2.3 Feedback in formative assessment Feedback evokes the gap between a student's current level of achievement and learning outcomes, and is used to bridge that gap Feedback must be meaningful; Focus on commenting on the main issues related to students' learning tasks, what students need to to improve; Clear, improved language; Ensure balance between positive and negative factors; Combine scores and comments 1.2.2.4 Strategies for implementing formative assessment in teaching The model of Black et al (2003) presents five key strategies for implementing FA, including: (1) Sharing learning goals and success criteria; (2) Design and organize learning tasks to identify evidence of students' achievement of learning goals; (3) Provide teaching aids to promote students' progress; (4) Motivating students to become guides for their classmates; (5) Encourage students to become masters of their own learning 1.2.2.5 Form of formative assessment Formal FA is an assessment activity planned by the teacher; Informal FA takes place spontaneously and randomly in the teaching process of teachers 1.2.2.6 The role of formative assessment in education For students: Help students achieve their learning goals; Help improve student academic achievement; Help students have the ability to self-regulate the learning process; 1.2.3.1 1.2.3.2 1.2.3.3 1.2.3.4 For teachers: Helping to improve teachers' teaching activities through the collected information 1.2.3 Formative assessment skill Concept of skills, assessment skills and formative assessment skills Skill is the ability to effectively perform a specific activity based on the existing knowledge and understanding of how to it to achieve a certain goal Assessment skills are the ability to effectively perform activities of collecting information and using them to make decisions in teaching management based on teaching objectives FASs are the ability to effectively carry out information gathering activities and use them to adjust the teaching process, thereby helping to shorten the gap between learners' current level and the learning outcomes The position of formative assessment skills in the system of teaching skills Assessment skills in general and international assessment skills in particular are an indispensable element in the teaching skills system of teachers Therefore, the training of international assessment skills for pedagogical students is necessary to prepare well for future careers Structure of assessment skill Stiggins (2010) proposed 05 groups of skills corresponding to 05 stages of assessment, including: Determination of assessment purpose; Define assessment goals; Carry out the assessment; Using the results of the assessment; Create a connection between learners and assessment activities Training skills model Geoff Petty has introduced a model of skill training for learners (EDUCARE?) with 08 components, including: Explanation; Doing- detail; Use; Check and correct; Aide-memoire; Review; Evaluate; Queries 1.2.3.5 Scale of skill training Developing skills is an area studied by many authors to provide theoretical models such as Dave, Harrow, Simpson and Dreyfus Theoretical models show the development of skills at levels from low to high, which are the basis for skill training in practice 1.3 PRACTICAL BASIS 1.3.1 Current status of training formative assessment skills in the Biology education programs All Biology teacher training programs have an assessment module in teaching Biology (2 credits), but the content of FA is not systematic and not structured into specific chapters in the document and is not credit for practice In addition, the content of assessment is also integrated in other modules such as: Biology teaching theory, Biology teaching method, Biology teaching practice 1.3.2 Current status of awareness and skills of biology teacher students about formative assessment The survey results of 285 students showed that students had basic perceptions about FA such as: purpose and time of implementation However, the knowledge about the subjects participating in the FA, how to create, acquire, process and use feedback for the purpose of quality improving of teaching are still vague concepts for students Students self-assessed the level of achievement in the group of skills to perform FA is not high and expect to improve these skills CHAPTER TRAINING

SKILLS FOR BIOLOGY PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS 2.4.1 Principles of training formative assessment skills Practicing FASs is associated with raising awareness about FA; Separate each component skills of FASs to practice; The training process is associated with the FA experience; Enhance self-practice and positive feedback; Ensure accuracy and objectivity in evaluating training results 2.4.2 The process of training formative assessment skills for Biology student teachers The process of training FASs consists of stages shown in Figure 2.3 Phase Equipping basic knowledge about FA: helping students understanding the concept, characteristic features, implementation strategy and meaning of FA in teaching Phase Training each component of FASs Step Practice skills in groups - Accepting tasks: Students learn the content and exchange and answer questions with the teacher about the task - Performing tasks: Students perform tasks in groups of 3-5 people - Discussion of the results: Students present the results of the task Discuss the results with your classmates and teachers - Conclusion: The teacher based on the discussion results of students to make comments, supplement, rationalize and correct knowledge about skills to be trained Step Self-practice: Students perform individual exercises and submit them to the teacher Step Teacher evaluates the performance of self-training exercises, thereby determining the level of students' achievement of skills and issues to be improved Accepting task Stage Equipping basic knowledge about FA Step Practice skills in groups Discussion Step Self - practice Stage Training each component of FASs Stage Carry out the task of coordinating the FASs Performing task Conclusion Step Assessing Accepted Unaccepted Figure 2.3 The training process of FASs for Biology preservice teacher Phase Carry out the task of coordinating the FASs: Students perform exercises, which require students to perform combinations of FASs For the group of skills related to the planning of FA, the exercises are completely performed in the Assessment in teaching Biology module For the combination of skills concerning to conducting FA, students perform practical task in Biology Teaching Methodology or Biology Teaching Practice module 2.4.3 Solutions to support training of formative assessment for Biology pre-service teacher In the training process

proportion of students at the two lowest levels and a slight increase of the proportion of students reaching the other two levels This can be explained because students have learned knowledge about learning objectives in previous module The second test saw the percentage of level students completely decrease when there are no students reaching this level, while the percentage of students reaching level and level increased by 55% and 32% respectively The percentage of students reaching level continued to increase in the two last tests with 40% and 58% respectively In contrast, the percentage of students achieving level decreased slightly to 52% and 42% at times KT3 and KT4 Table 3.1 The difference in average of KNA levels achieved by the students through the tests Paired

difference in FAS level of SV across tests is 0.647, 0.382 and 0.176, respectively, with p value (Sig.(2-tailed)) less than 0.05 Therefore, hypothesis H0 is rejected and hypothesis H1 is accepted The test results show that the development of students' FASs is influenced by the experimental factor rather than by chance The results reflect the effectiveness of the skill development process as proposed 3.3.3 The level of development of formative assessment skills of a typical student groups Students in all groups showed a significant increase in the level of achievement of all component skills of the FASs across tests The 3rd group of students always have a high starting point, so the increase in amplitude is not much compared to that of the 2nd group of students However, the stability of the level of component knowledge of the 3rd group is slightly higher than that of the other two groups The increase in the level of skills group related to perform FA was more pronounced in the 2nd and 3rd group of students, but less in the 1st group The interview results of the typical group of students showed that the training process basically had an impact to raise students' awareness concerning the crucial role of FA in teaching Biology Students also identified a number of objective and subjective problems affecting the training results, such as: many tasks and exercises to perform while the training time is barely short; Exercises in the hypothetical classrooms are also limited, because the feedback elicited from the highschool students in the Biology lessons is different from the hypothetical classroom at the educational university CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION CONCLUSION 1.1 Analysing the syllabus and the survey result of 285 Biology pre-service students in 05 universities show that: Although international assessment is mentioned in the training program, it only stops at a brief level, the practice of international assessment skills still not systematic; Students' awareness of international assessment is not complete and their skills to perform international assessment are still limited 1.2 The thesis has determined the correlation between the type of necessary collected information of each component Biology competency with the methods, tools, as a basis to determine the structure of FASs, propose the training process this skill for Biology student teachers 1.3 Base on theoretical literature, the thesis has analyzed FASs in teaching Biology into 02 groups with 04 component skills The group of skills related to planning FA includes: Determining the objectives of FA; Determining methods and designing assessment tools The group of skills related to performing FA includes: Collecting and processing feedback; Using feefback The identification of the compositional skills and specific behavior indicators of those skills play crucial role for building evaluation criteria as well as the training process of FASs 1.4 The scale, rubric and the development path of FASs are built to measure this skill development of Biology pre-service teachers The scale of FASs describes general behaviors of 04 levels, including: Novice, Preliminary, Skilled, and Proficient Based on this scale and structure of FASs, the thesis designed the rubric base on describing the behavioral indicators of each component skills of FASs according to those four levels The development path of FASs is built on the basis of analyzing the role, difficulty of each component skill, thereby determining the contribution of those skills to the level of the FASs 1.5 The training process of FASs for Biology student teachers includes 03 stages: Phase 1- Equipping basic knowledge about FA; Phase – Training the component skills; Phage – Carry out the task of coordinating the FASs The system of 04 work sheets, 17 exercises is used in this training process 1.6 Pedagogical experiment on 102 Biology pre-service teacher at The university of science and education – The university of Danang and Hue university of Education - Hue University shown that the training process was initially effective when increasing the level of FASs RECOMMENDATION 2.1 Expanding the experimental scope to evaluate more accurately the effectiveness of the training process in developing FASs for Biology student teacher in other educational institutions 2.2 Research more specifically on training the group of performing FASs such as: collecting and processing feedback and using feedback in the context of high schools 2.3 Researching the factors affecting the FASs
