Abstract

Assessment is one of the most controversial elements throughout the Physical Education Teacher Education and is especially important in the Final Project of Studies, given the peculiarity of the subject in the different degrees. The aim of this study is to know the perceptions of students of Physical Education Teacher Education on the final assessment and grading processes of the Final Project of Studies. For this purpose, a qualitative study has been carried out with a sample of 22 students from 4 Spanish universities identified as "diana-centers", who attended their training in the academic year 2020-2021. The participants are students of the Degree in Primary Education and the Master's Degree in Teacher Education, in both cases of the Physical Education mentions. Using the focus group technique, we tried to know the opinion of the students in relation to the assessment and grading system of the Final Project of Studies. After data collection, a content analysis of the four focus groups was carried out using the "Nvivo" software (Release Version). The results reveal that the assessment of the Final Project of Studies of the Physical Education degrees is mostly summative and finalistic. This assessment model does not help future teachers to develop their assessment literacy or to understand the value of the subject for their professional education.
