My Target
At the end of this activity, you will be competent in identifying and naming
different assessment methods used in the classroom.

My Task
Observe at least three classes and make a list of the assessment methods used by
teachers.
In my list, classify assessment methods as to conventional and authentic and alternative.
Describe how each assessment method was used, including my personal observations.
 Confer with my FS teacher for the assessment list.
Reflect on my experience.

My Tools
As you visit schools and observe assessment practices in at least three classes,
document your observations using the activity forms provided for you in this reference.
For your pen-and-paper test items, customize a table of specification, and prepare the test
material based on the prescriptions of the school where you do class observation.

ASSESSMENT TOOLS DESCRIPTION

Oral Strategy
Oral Question and Answer/ Oral Teacher asks certain questions regarding
Recitation their previous lesson in order to determine if
her students can recapitulate and if they already
mastered the different kitchen lay-out before
they continue the lesson.

It serves as their graded recitation so that

the students become active, participative and
eager to listen.

Teacher requires students to verbalize their

knowledge, organize their thoughts in order to
present their own idea regarding the topic.

An assessment tool responsible to do by

Observational Strategy the teacher for her students. While the teacher
Observation discusses the topics she also doing her part to
observe her students in order for her to have an
idea whom or not students are listening,
focusing and who needs more attention.

The teacher observes her students while

they make their outputs. (sketching their own
kitchen lay-out)

It uses to determine which students need

additional support and how to adjust
instruction to encourage more and better
learning.
 Performance-based assessment Teacher uses creation type of performance-
Creation Type based task that requires tangible products.
Students have an actual performance.

Students are enjoying in making or

constructing their own kitchen lay-out design
according or matches their home-kitchen lay-
out structure.

Analytic Rubrics (individual criteria) An evaluative tool that list the important
features that should be present in students
performance

Rubrics are clearly identified what will be

graded and presented before the task begin. It
gives students understanding of what the
assessor/ evaluator will be looking for and
students can how their skills accordingly.
Students are learning given while being rated.

Authentic Assessment While students perform a given task at the

same time it serve as authentic assessment
because they experience it in real by making
their own style and based their own experience
because home based the task.

ASSESSMENT TOOLS DESCRIPTION

Paper-and-pencil assessment
Objective test (placement assessment) Teacher administers a short quiz before the
class starts.

It uses this assessment to know what their

students are bringing into the learning situation
and use this in starting point for instruction.

Its purpose is to assess the needs of the

learners to have a basis in planning for relevant
instruction

Oral Strategy
Oral recitation Teacher asks question to be answered by

Demonstration Type
her students that serve them as recitation that
will be graded or they have additional points.
Students are very active, participative and
eagerness to listen.
Teacher uses this informal assessment
technique of watching students to identify the
strengths and weaknesses, patterns of
behaviour and cognitive strategies.
It is used in daily to assess students of

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE

ASSESSMENT TOOLS
ASSESSMENT METHOD WAS USED
Traditional Type of Assessment
paper-and-pencil test Teacher pretences a formative/ summative
-multiple choice assessment in order to determine if they have
-placement learned in the lesson.

A tool that helps the teacher to decide what

is the best for her students. Teacher executes
this assessment effectively.

observational Strategy Teacher encourages her students to recite

to improve students communication skills and
to gain self-confidence by answering a piece of
question has being ask by the teacher.

oral recitation Students have freedom to express and give

their opinions. It provides opportunity to use
concrete materials to express their ideas.

Alternative Assessment
performance-based Students need to do a certain or given task.
-creation type Assessment that requires hands-on
-demonstration performance to find out if they can execute it
 well.

My ANALYSIS
1. Was there a variety of assessment methods used by the teacher? How relevant
1.
was/were the assessment method/s used?

Yes, there is a variety of assessment method used by the teacher by using the
different types of assessment methods depending to the learning objectives. The
assessment tools used by the teacher are placement assessment, creation type of
performance-based assessment, quizzes; oral recitation, self-report and observation were
relevant to the topic or subject matter. Each method has specified purposes, tasks and
focuses to the learning skills of the learners. They are relevant to the learning
objectives, which will be determined the three domain of objectives are being attained or
not in order to have a basis to the revision in her instruction.

2. 2. Do you think the expected students learning behaviours indicated in the objectives
were properly and appropriately assessed through those assessment methods?

Yes, in my point of view the expected students learning behaviour indicated in the
objectives were properly and appropriately assessed through those assessment methods or
tools used by the teacher.
The appropriateness of assessment method matches the learning objectives of
what is intended to measure. It simply means that they are anchored to each other.
Without the learning objectives, the learning behaviour will not be tested because one of
the domains of objectives is affective which serves as learning behaviour. A student show
their interest, willingness to participate, appreciation and adopts a long-term value system
during class discussion or even in activity time.

My reflection
Assessment tools are tools in assessing and evaluating students
performance. It leads to a continuously to a continuously cycle of improved students
learning. The appropriateness of assessment method is depending in the learning
objectives the attainment of which is what you are assessing.
Traditionally, teachers used pen-and-paper objective test to assess
students mastery of a given concept, substantive subject matter. This assessment strategy
it either teacher-made test or standardized test and it has a specific correct answer or
response. As time goes by, it has given rise the concept and turn to alternative assessment
that includes the performance-based assessment and more authentic assessment-wherein
the students are being judge through actual performance of essential and observation
skills, creation of products that are grounded in real context and constraints. They assess
directly by using rubrics.
It s indispensable these methods to determine whether or not the learning
objectives have been attained, to measure how well students have understood the lesson,
and in able to what teacher may decide that some teaching method were effective than
others based on the conclusion. In short, it provides qualitative information that helps
teacher determine how they might improve courses.
We have lots to consider in assessing students like a valid assessment tool
matches with learning targets, considering the multiple intelligence and varied learning
style, assessment of learning must be done in a variety of ways. It should never be used
as punishment or disciplinary measure and it should free from any discrimination, biases,
and stereotypes or subjectivity.
It is highly need inside the classroom so as not only to find-out what
students know or what to do but it requires also to show what they can do and not simply
tell what they know/ would do. It is more authentic if they directly experience it. Thats
simply, learning by doing.
