Dear teacher!
The group of teachers designed this collection of tasks as a teaching aid to assist teachers
within the framework of updating the content of education. Tasks with assessment criteria and
descriptors are samples for assisting teachers in providing constructive feedback to learners in terms
of achievement of learning objectives; in selecting and designing similar tasks, in planning lessons
and carrying out Formative Assessment.
The advisory nature of the tasks collection allows teachers to adapt, add and make changes
in tasks according to learners’ capacities and requirements.
Additional materials (manuals, presentations, plans, etc.), the discussion possibility on
forums and video instructions can be found on the official website of «Nazarbayev Intellectual
Schools» Autonomous Educational Organisation smk.edu.kz.
This collection of tasks is designed for secondary school teachers, school administrations,
educational departments’ seniors, regional and school coordinators in criteria-based assessment and
others.
Freely available Internet resources such as pictures, cartoons, photos, texts, video and audio
materials, etc. have been used in designing this tasks collection. The collection of tasks was
designed for the uncommercial purposes.
