三、寫作課堂評價的重要意義和作用
寫作課堂評價是寫作教學(xué)的一種手段，是促進教學(xué)的一種策略。雖然評價活動由教師設(shè)計，卻由學(xué)生來完成，也就是說，寫作評價很大程度上是教師監(jiān)控下的學(xué)生自我評價。評價對學(xué)生有以下意義和作用：
1、能監(jiān)測到學(xué)生對寫作課堂教學(xué)掌握的情況及對于寫作策略的運用情況。
2、使學(xué)生能清楚自己的長處和不足，有助于糾正學(xué)生的一些錯誤觀念。
3、為學(xué)生調(diào)整自己的學(xué)習(xí)方案提供反饋，幫助學(xué)生重新調(diào)整學(xué)習(xí)策略。
4、使學(xué)生能真正對自己的學(xué)習(xí)負責(zé)，增強自主意識。
四、課堂評估在寫作教學(xué)中的應(yīng)用
1、自我評價
    如果學(xué)生在學(xué)習(xí)過程中是積極的學(xué)習(xí)者，他們就必須構(gòu)建自己的學(xué)習(xí)目標，設(shè)計自己的學(xué)習(xí)路線，并隨時檢查自己的進步。這樣會為自己的學(xué)習(xí)進度和學(xué)習(xí)方向負責(zé)，從而逐步成為一個自主和獨立的學(xué)習(xí)者，為終身學(xué)習(xí)打下基礎(chǔ)。（羅少茜，2003）學(xué)生寫作的課堂評價可分為：寫前評價和過程評價和寫后評價。
寫前評價   包括寫作前是否思考，選題方式（ 題目大小）是否正確，是否會寫開頭和結(jié)尾等。目的在于讓學(xué)生寫前培養(yǎng)良好的寫前思維習(xí)慣。這樣，學(xué)生對自己的各項能力有一個基本認識，知道自己的優(yōu)點，弱點，有力于奠定寫作的基礎(chǔ)。寫前教師必須要和學(xué)生一起具體制定各項評估標準，展示優(yōu)秀的寫作要素，教師對每一項都要提供范例，讓學(xué)生知道優(yōu)秀作品是什么樣，進而對自己的作品進行評價。下面為優(yōu)秀作品寫作要素構(gòu)成的范例：

What a good writer can do

What will the topic be?
How did you choose your topic?
What pre-drafting activities are you doing?
How are you gathering ideas for your writing?
How do you organize your writing?
What developing mode are you going to adopt?
What is your purpose of writing?
         ( adapted from O’Malley&Pierce.1996)

過程評價    對寫作來說，結(jié)果評價多于過程評價。但對于作為過程的寫作教學(xué)，過程評價尤為重要。過程評價一般在寫作過程中進行，可由學(xué)生自評或有教師進行評價，也可由同伴由討論的方式進行。在這個過程中，教師可以給學(xué)生提供可參考的問題：
（1）寫草稿時
    How are you getting along with your writing?
    Do you have any problems?
    What are you writing about?
  Where do you want this piece to go?
    （2）學(xué)生修改時
  What kind of information are you making?
  What kind of errors have you located?
    Are you following the guide line for revising?
  Do you have any suggestion for further improvement?

寫后評價   寫作后可以根據(jù)老師制定發(fā)放的細則標準來對文章進行詳細的評估， 找出自己的優(yōu)點和弱點。下面是自我評估的一個范例：

2、同伴評價
溝通技能和合作技能在同伴評價中十分重要。同學(xué)之間彼此信任和真誠的互相評價需要長時間來培養(yǎng)。在寫作完成后，可把學(xué)生分成二人或四人組交換進行評價，但有效評價需要建立在相互信任、負責(zé)的基礎(chǔ)之上。通過自評和互評，學(xué)生有機會檢查自己和他人的寫作成果，對自己的目標有一個更明確的概念。學(xué)生互評的成功和自評的成功一樣，需要教師提供榜樣，展示優(yōu)秀的互評范例。通過評議使學(xué)生充分理解評價的標準。同時讓他們學(xué)會信任、誠實、公正對自己和別人（Darling—Hammond1995）。互評中最主要的一點是要了解學(xué)生的情況，讓學(xué)生意識到“同伴文化”的力量以及友好氣氛在學(xué)習(xí)過程中的重要性?；ピu鼓勵學(xué)生合作和向他人學(xué)習(xí)，對自己的目標也產(chǎn)生激勵?；ピu也可采用筆者在自評中提供的表格。
3、教師評價
學(xué)生的自評和互評都必須與教師的評價結(jié)合。在評價的過程中，教師的作用是多層面的。要示范寫作學(xué)習(xí)方法，評價方法，幫助學(xué)生自評，管理學(xué)生互評，和學(xué)生一起反思，確立今后的目標。
教師給學(xué)生的作品的評語應(yīng)簡潔、具體并具有針對性。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，有建設(shè)性的，鼓勵性的反饋，加之寫作內(nèi)容和寫作過程的評價而非僅僅是寫作慣例的檢測有助于學(xué)生寫作水平的提高， 有助于培養(yǎng)學(xué)生對寫作的正確態(tài)度。表揚比糾錯更重要，過分的糾錯有傷學(xué)生的自尊。（王篤勤，2004）
下面的一些評語也許會給教師以啟發(fā)和參考：
（1） 開頭和結(jié)束
A good beginning ! A perfect ending!
The first paragraph makes a good beginning.
The last paragraph makes a perfect ending.
All the points have been covered.
It’s clever of you to use a topic sentence at the beginning of a paragraph.
I’m glad to see the sentence coherence in your last paragraph.
    Strong introduction----it stimulates my desire to read
    Your ending came a bit too quickly, It seems there is something lost. 
The conclusion seems a little week.
The introduction is not strong enough to motivate the readers.
(2) 文章結(jié)構(gòu)組織
Well organized.      Easy to follow.
The focus of the paper seems not clear enough.
How is this connected with the ideas before it?
This paragraph seems a little overloaded.
Connectors are needed between different paragraphs.
(3)清晰度
It’s wonderful to use proper conjunctions between sentences.
You are good at developing a passage.
Good description.
More details are needed here.
Tell me more about this.
An example would have made this clearer.
(4) 句法結(jié)構(gòu)
It’s wonderful to use proper conjunctions between sentences.
Good word choice.
Long sentences.
Fragments.Try to use complete sentences.
You can combine these short sentences.

結(jié)束語
在課堂寫作評估中，教師和學(xué)生共同面對學(xué)生的成長。各種評價方式結(jié)果不僅給學(xué)生也給教師提供了教與學(xué)的信息。學(xué)生得到個人反饋，明確努力方向，教師得到學(xué)生的反饋以便改進寫作的教學(xué)方法，給學(xué)生提供更有意義和有用的指導(dǎo)。
