Self-assessment in favor of Writing at the Algerian College
Although recent reforms give primacy to the oral skill, the fact remains that the evaluation focuses on writing. Scriptural authority is the primary objective of teaching/learning of the French language that requires specific skills: mastery of morphosyntax, style, vocabulary, different from that of the oral skilll. Nevertheless, this not always easy because many learners have difficulty with writing because of their writing deficiencies. To overcome these shortcomings, we believe it would now involve the learner in his own scriptural evaluation. The tools for this type of evaluation (among others, the Self-evaluation) are available in textbooks. The aim of our study, subscribed in the field of didactics of writing, would be to check the usefulness and effectiveness of this type of proficiency testing tool with students of middle school in Algeria.
