Goal
At the end of the activity, students will be competent in identifying and
naming different assessment methods used in the classroom.
Tasks
Observe at least three classes and make a list of the assessment
methods used by the teachers;
In the list, classify assessment methods as to conventional and
authentic/ alternative;
Describe how each assessment method was used, including
personal observations;
Confer and share with the group/class the assessment list; and;
Reflect on the experience.
Tools
As you visit and observe the assessment practices of at least 3 classes,
document your observation using the activity form.

use of this assessment, the
teacher will be able to know
their knowledge about the
topic.
The level of learning behavior
in Cognitive Domain which is
present in this assessment is
Creating because they are
asked to do an essay in
extended response type.
The level of learning behavior
in Affective Domain which is

ANALYSIS
Was there a variety of assessment methods used by the teacher? How
relevant was/were the assessment method/s used? Explain.
Yes there were varieties of assessment methods used by the teachers testing
the students knowledge and ability by giving them different test to assess how far
did they already learned and how can they acquire more than what they already
know. They train students by giving them the chance to learn by themselves with
the guide of the teacher and they give them motivation to enhance their study
habits so they wont be behind the class. The teacher give students tests and
quizzes to assess their academic performance and to know what adjustments are
necessary to improve learning, the assessment tools are used by the teachers to
assess students learning time by time so they will know the aligned strategy to use
to their learners.
Yes, there was a variety of assessment methods used by the teacher - oral
questioning, performance test, paper-and-pencil test, etc. Assessment tools are
used to measure the students' knowledge and skills. Using varied tools in assessing
the teacher helps the students to have comparative data that provides valuable
information on how well the students are meeting the learning outcomes
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.
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.
REFLECTIONS
Write your personal reflections or thoughts and feelings about the
importance of the use of appropriate assessment methods in the classroom,
including what students and teachers can gain from appropriate assessment
tools.
So, the basic action for all of this is for the teacher to use appropriate and
proper assessment methods to different kind of learners.

Methods of Assessment
by William Badders
With the release of the National Science Education Standards, the issues of why, how, and what we, as
teachers, assess in our classrooms will become a major challenge in the multifaceted science reform
effort currently underway. As educators are changing their ideas about what constitutes exemplary
inquiry-based learning, and recognizing that science is an active process that encourages higher-order
thinking and problem solving, there is an increased need to align curriculum, instruction, and
assessment. Classroom assessment techniques are focusing on aligning assessments more closely with
the instructional strategies actually used with children.
need to be modified. In this way, assessment can be used to improve classroom practice, plan
curriculum, and research one's own teaching practice. Of course, assessment will always be used to
provide information to children, parents, and administrators. In the past, this information was primarily
expressed by a "grade". Increasingly, this information is being seen as a vehicle to empower students to
be self-reflective learners who monitor and evaluate their own progress as they develop the capacity to
be self-directed learners. In addition to informing instruction and developing learners with the ability to
guide their own instruction, assessment data can be used by a school district to measure student
achievement, examine the opportunity for children to learn, and provide the basis for the evaluation of
the district's science program. Assessment is changing for many reasons. The valued outcomes of
science learning and teaching are placing greater emphasis on the child's ability to inquire, to reason
scientifically, to apply science concepts to real-world situations, and to communicate effectively what
the child knows about science. Assessment of scientific facts, concepts, and theories must be focused
not only on measuring knowledge of subject matter, but on how relevant that knowledge is in building
the capacity to apply scientific principles on a daily basis. The teacher's role in the changing landscape
of assessment requires a change from merely a collector of data, to a facilitator of student understanding
of scientific principles.

It is clear that different kinds of information must be gathered about students by using different types of
assessments. The types of assessments that are used will measure a variety of aspects of student
learning, conceptual development, and skill acquisition and application. The use of a diverse set of datacollection formats will yield a deeper and more meaningful understanding of what children know and
are able to do, which is, after all, the primary purpose of assessment.
