Abstract
The aim of the research is to determine the self-assessment habits of high school students and to determine whether the students differ in self-assessment habits with regard to sex and school success. The research was performed during the 2018/2019 school year on the sample of 61 third-grade high school students from one gymnasium in Osijek. A written exam and a questionnaire were conducted. In the exam, the expected and achieved scores were compared in order to objectively assess the student's self-assessment of school achievement. Subjective experience of the ability to accurately self-assess achievement as well as other habits of self-assessment were determined by the questionnaire. The research identified a discrepancy between achieved and expected success, as well as a discrepancy between the perceived and actual ability to accurately self-assess one's own success. Students overestimate their success and their own ability to self-assess knowledge. It was also found that there was an awareness of the importance of self-assessment, but students lack habits and experience in this skill.
