What are the forms of periodic evaluation for high school students in the 2018 General Education Program in Vietnam?

According to Article 7 of Circular 22/2021/TT-BGDDT, the periodic evaluation of high school students includes mid-term and end-of-term assessments. Periodic evaluation is conducted through tests (on paper or on a computer), practical tasks, and specific learning projects as follows:

- The duration for tests (on paper or on a computer) for subjects (excluding clusters of specialized study topics) with up to 70 periods per school year is 45 minutes, for subjects with more than 70 periods is from 60 to 90 minutes; for specialized subjects, it is up to 120 minutes.

- For tests (on paper or on a computer) evaluated by scores, the test content is built based on a matrix and specifications that meet the requirements of the subject outlined in the General Education Program.

- For tests (on paper or on a computer) evaluated by remarks, practical tasks, and learning projects, there must be guidelines and evaluation criteria as required by the subject outlined in the General Education Program before implementation.

Moreover, the periodic evaluation of high school students needs to ensure the following:

(1) Each semester, each subject evaluated by remarks has one mid-term evaluation and one end-of-term evaluation.

(2) Each semester, each subject evaluated by a combination of remarks and scores has one mid-term score (abbreviated as DDGgk) and one end-of-term score (abbreviated as DDGck).

(3) Students who do not participate in the required number of evaluations as specified in (1) and (2) for valid reasons are allowed to make up for the missing evaluations with equivalent assessments. These make-up evaluations are conducted each semester.

(4) In cases where students do not participate in make-up evaluations as specified in (3), they will be assessed at a Not Yet Achieved level or receive a zero score for the missing evaluation.
