Preliminary conclusions

As we currently put the Swiss directives linked to the Bologna Declaration into practice, the issue of mobility comes to the forefront and the distinctions between formative and summative evaluation (Bloom & Hastings, 1991) tend to be neglected. Thus, both among student-teachers and trainers, we observe a certain puzzlement with regard to the future application of these directives, which are supposed to be based on standards of competencies to be attained and certified. However, the primary advantage of these new constraints is that they promote reflection with regard to both course content and the evaluation of training processes leading to certification.

With that in mind, we have questioned the adequacy of the term "portfolio" for our project. We especially value the formative aspect of the implemented process (Scallon, 2000), even though we recognize the aim of certification. In this regard, a discussion has taken place among the professors who promoted the implementation of the portfolio assessment tool. They have decided to rename this tool and now call it: an "interactive assessment file". Even though this change can seem quite formal, it is obvious for each partner that the final aim is the certification of the "didactic and disciplinary skills" module. What remains clearly in the global evaluation approach, is that optimizing the value of formative assessment is explicitly promoted by "interactivity" between student-teachers and professors. We hope that further development of this assessment project will encourage formative qualities beyond the simple logging of a student-teacher's progress on the way towards becoming a special education teacher. An essential step could thus be made in the direction of establishing the profile of a reflective professional.
