The International Baccalaureate(IB) assesses student work internally, following are the assessments strategies or the various way of assessing a student for improving their skill and knowledge they are as follows:- ~ Languages:- oral work is given to students in languages so that their speech or they are familiar with the terminology of a particular language.
~Fieldwork:- In geography they assess students by giving some fieldwork so that students do not visualize what teachers have thought but they can get experience what actually been thought to them.
~Laboratory work:- in the sciences they assess students by giving them to do experiments so that they can get a clear cut idea of what all they have learnt.

✓Subjects of IB Board:- The IB MYP comprises eight subject groups: Language and literature. Mathematics. Sciences. Individuals and societies. Language acquisition. Arts. Physical and health Education. Design.
✓Assessment criteria of IB board:- Assessment in the IB Diploma Program is criterion-related, allowing student achievement to be judged against clearly defined pre-determined descriptors. IB teachers use a broad range of formal and informal assessment strategies throughout their course to allow students to demonstrate their learning.
The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (IB MYP) is a challenging programme for adolescent learners aged between 11-16 years in the IB Continuum of Programmes.
This programme places specific emphasis on the holistic development of students and their individual abilities and levels of understanding. Their learning is further broadened with values and sound judgments challenging their emotional, physical, psychological and social well-being.
The IB MYP comprises eight subject groups:
Language and literature Mathematics Sciences Individuals and societies Language acquisition Arts Physical and health Education Design The IB MYP curriculum bridges 8 subjects with an emphasis on communication skills personalizing their sense of responsibility to the community around them. The programme model concentrates on student-led learning in every possible classroom setup. Oakridge focuses our students’ efforts in communication, study skills; strong writing skills, research and a great deal of practical thinking skills, leading to good levels of analytical skill. Students constantly reinforce the programme support base, which are concepts, global contexts, and attitudes to learning (ATLs), preparing them for the rigours of post-secondary education.
Summative assessment In IB Board summative assessment are assigned as a way for student to demonstrate their knowledge and to show what they have learned. Students are graded on what they actually know and are able to do rather than behavioral or compliance assignments. Each Subject area has grading criteria and each grading criteria must be assessed at least two times per semester .Each teacher must assess each criteria two times per semester. Criteria based assessments are assessed using an MYP 8-point rubric. When more than one criterion is assessed in a task, there will be multiple grades. For example if an essay is assessed using Criteria A: Analyzing, B: Organizing C: Producing Text, and D: Using Language, then the teacher will input a separate score for each criterion, thus there will be four (4) grades for the essay. At the end of the grading period, a teacher will make a best judgment for each of the four prescribed criteria.
The IB boards are very meticulous in their summative assessment, following are the steps carried on for summative assessment. Exam preparation- The process of creating each individual examination. It covers everything from deciding on the topics the questions will cover, through writing and editing the specific questions, translating into other languages, arranging and preparing them in the correct format, and finally doing the necessary quality checks. Examination-This is part of the process where candidates takes exam in schools. Standard setting-This is the process where the senior examiners explain how to mark candidate's works to their examiner teams. Marking- This involves examiners looking at individual candidates works and decides how many marks to give it.They must follow the instructions given by the principal examiner. Grade award-it is where their senior examiners decide how marks should be converted to grade. Issue of results-the results are issued to schools and candidates. Enquiry upon results-it is an opportunity to schools where they think there is an error in the examination process and ask IB to look again into candidates work. Assessment design-it is the most important aspect of closing the assessment cycle. To learn from the experience of candidates undertaking examination and to improve what the board is intending to assess and the approach they take including the number and types of assessment tasks.
The IB board uses types of assessment External assessment Examinations form the basis of the assessment for most courses. This is because of their high levels of objectivity and reliability. They include: essays structured problems short-response questions data-response questions text-response questions case-study questions multiple-choice questions – though these are rarely used.

In order to provide students with opportunities to achieve at the higher level MYP teachers develop rigorous task that embrace a variety strategies as unit unfold ,teachers will conduct formative assessment in order to assess students learning and adjusting instruction to meet need of the students.
In IB Board, Examples of formative Assessment as Formative assessment tools used in the classroom provide critical feedback to teachers, helping them to monitor and modify their instruction methods and lesson plans. Teachers are better able to meet the unique needs of individual students, empowering them through personalized and timely feedback. It’s important to use a variety of teaching and learning formative assessments, changing them frequently to stimulate both students and teachers. Assessment techniques are only as limited as the teacher’s imagination!Due to the focus on standards, formative assessments allow instructors to differentiate based on abilities, learning styles, and student interests. 1. EXAMPLES OF FORMATIVE ASSESSMENTS a. Observation This tool is used to assess the engagement of students and understanding of skills. Instructors can observe in whole group, small group or individually. Students can be observed while working with the teacher or by the instructor taking the role of an outsider looking in. b. Selected response Selected response can be either a test or a quiz given before, during, or at the end of a unit to assess student understanding and achievement levels. Instructors can gain immediate feedback regarding the students’ understanding. c. Process journals These are used to facilitate student reflection, which is a critical component of the learning process. They track students’ personal achievement and enable them to reflect upon their own learning experiences. It is required in some MYP fields of study, but can be utilized by all subject areas. d. Portfolios These provide a method for students to compile a collection of work throughout the course of the MYP program. Students can use portfolios as a means of reflection as well as a display of their gains in both knowledge and skills. Portfolios can be used during student - lead conferences. e. External tests It be used as a measure giving insight to students, parents and educators of each student’s personal growth achievement.
In contrast, summative assessment focuses on measuring what the candidate can do, typically to demonstrate the completion of a training programme and/or readiness to progress to the next stage of education. While formative assessment is interested in why a student does something, summative assessment wants to know whether they did the correct thing. While this may seem less useful than the why question, consider the different purpose of summative assessment, which is to make a judgment about the candidate, not to inform future teaching. For those not convinced on the need for summative assessment, we suggest reading the section on “Describing success”. The IB uses both external and internal assessment in the DP.
External assessment
Examinations form the basis of the assessment for most courses. This is because of their high levels of objectivity and reliability.
They include:
essays
structured problems
short-response questions
data-response questions
text-response questions
case-study questions
multiple-choice questions – though these are rarely used.
Not all aspects of the learner profile are appropriate to measure through summative assessment, but several are encapsulated within the concept of higher-order thinking skills. Good assessment recognizes the importance of these characteristics and even when it is not designed to measure them,it can offer students a chance to develop these competencies.
