Assessment for Learning, Assessment as Learning, Assessment of Learning. How they are Practiced? My learning episode overview This episode introduces assessment FOR learning, assessment AS learning and assessment OF learning. Prepositions for, as and of mean a lot. They make a big difference in assessment. Assessment FOR learning, assessment AS learning and assessment OF leaning have different purposes. You learned them in your subjects on Assessment. In this episode, you will observe how they are applied in the teaching-learning process.

My intended learning outcomes At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:  distinguish among the 3 forms of assessment and  draw concrete examples of these form of assessment.

My performance criteria I will be rated along the following: a. quality of my observations and documentation, b. completeness and depth of my analysis, c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections, d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and e. time of submission of my portfolio.

My learning essentials The preposition “for” in assessment FOR learning implies that assessment is done to improve and ensure learning. This is referred to as FORmative assessment, assessment is given while the teacher is in the process of student formation (learning). It ensures that learning is going on while teacher is in the process of teaching.

Teacher does not lose anything if as she/he teaches he/she checks for understanding now and then. This is to ensure that before he/she proceeds further or comes near the end of te chapter, unit or course or grading period, the students understood the lesson.

It will be tragic and a waste of time if teacher just proceeds with his/her teaching presuming that students understood the lesson only to discover at the end of the unit or grading period that students after all did not understand the lesson. So much time has already been wasted. Besides, lack of understanding of the lesson must have been compounded because the “ABCs” of the lesson weren’t mastered and the teacher already proceeded to “XYZ”. Too late to discover that at the end of a unit or a grading period the students did not learn what was expected of them. Formative assessment also includes the pretest and the posttest that a teacher gives to ensure learning.

Why the pretest? It is to find out where the students are or determine their entry knowledge or skills so teacher knows how to adjust instruction.

Why the posttest? It is to find out if the intended learning outcome has been attained after the teaching-learning process. If not all students have attained it, the teacher have to apply intervention or a remediation. Why do these have to take place? To ensure learning, thus the term assessment FOR learning.

In Assessment FOR Learning, teachers use assessment results to inform or adjust their teaching.

Assessment OF Learning is usually given at the end of a unit, grading period or term like a semester it is meant to assess learning for grading purposes, thus the term Assessment OF Learning.

Assessment AS Learning is associated with self-assessment. As the term implies, assessment by itself is already a form of learning for the students.

As students assess their own work (e.g. a paragraph) and/or with their peers with the use of scoring rubric, they learn on their own what a good paragraph is. At the same time, as they are engaged in self-assessment, they learn about themselves as learners (e.g. paragraph writers) and become aware of how they learn. In short in assessment AS learning, student set their targets, actively monitor and evaluate their own learning in relation to their set target. As a consequence, they become selfdirected or independent learners.

Learning My Learning Episode Overview For the assessment process to accomplish its purposes, i.e.., to ensure learning, we must be guided by basic assessment principles. This episode focused on basic guiding principles of assessment.

My Intended Learning Outcomes After this Episode, I must be able to:  determine application of the guiding assessment principles in given situations and  apply the basic assessment principles in the teaching-learning process.

My Performance Criteria I will be rated along the following: a. quality of my observations and documentation, b. completeness and depth of my analysis, c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections, d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and e. time of submission of my portfolio.

My Learning Essentials The following are the principles that should guide you in the conduct of assessment. 1.Begin by specifying clearly and exactly what do you want to assess. What you want to asses is/are stated in your learning outcomes/lesson objectives.

2.The intended learning outcome/lesson objective NOT CONTENT is the basis of the assessment task. You use content in the development of the assessment tool and task but it is the attainment of your learning outcome NOT content that you want to assess. This is Outcome-based Teaching and Learning. 3.Set your criterion of success or acceptable standard of success. It is against this established standard that you will interpret your assessment results. Example: is a score 7 out of 10 (the highest possible score) acceptable or considered success? 4.Make use of varied tools for assessment data-gathering and multiple source of assessment data. It is not pedagogically sound to rely on just one source of data gathered by only one assessment tool. Consider multiple intelligences and learning styles. DepEd Order No, s. 2015 cites the use of multiple ways of measuring students’ varying abilities and learning potentials.

5.Learners must be given feedback about their performance. Feedback must be specific. “Good work”! is positive feedback and is welcome but actually is not a very good feedback since it is not specific. A more specific better feedback is “You observed rules on subject-verb agreement and variety of sentences. Three of your commas were misplaced.”

6.Assessment should be on real-world application and not on out of four context drills.

7.Emphasize on the assessment of higher-order thinking.

8. Provide opportunities for self-assessment.

My Map Step 1. Read the Learning Essentials given above.

Step 2. Observe at least three (3) classes with a learning partner. I will choose one class from each of the three groups. Group 1- Language/Science/Math Group 2- Physical Education, ICT, TLE

Step 3. Discuss my observations/answers to the questions with my partner.

Step 4. Write down my answers to the questions.

Step 7. Come-up with my Portfolio. Step 6. Answer the LET-like questions Step 5. Reflect on my observation.

My Analysis 1. Which principles of assessment were observed to have been practiced?

2. Which principles was/were least observed/ not observed?

My Reflections We assess what we value and value is what we assess. What should I do to make assessment worthwhile?

Integrating Theory and Practice 1. Emphasize on self-assessment. Teacher Lyn applies this principle by ________. a. Making her students check their own papers. b. Motivating her students to set their personal learning goals and track their progress against that goal. c. Preparing her students for higher-order thinking questions. d. Requiring them scoring rubric as project.

2. Assessment should be on real-world application and not on outof-context drills. To apply this principle, what should Teacher Nancy do? a. Assess students’ English oral communication skills in a graduation program simulation where each student has a speaking assignment. b. Give a 20-point quiz asking students to determine whether the sound of “a” is long or short. c. Give students a matching type of test on vocabulary. d. Give a 10-item quiz on adding similar fractions which is the weakness of students. 3. If you emphasize on assessing higher-order thinking skills, which should you do? a. b. c. d.

Avoid paper-pencil test. Give students a problem to solve. Give oral examination. Do less formative assessment.

4. On which should a teacher base his/her assessment? a. b. c. d.

Yes. No. Very much, the feedback is clear enough. No, it is exaggerated.

7. Teacher Annie explains to her class: “Each of you is expected to spell 10 words out of ten words correctly. This is a mastery test”. Is Teacher Annie’s behavior in keeping with the principle to set acceptable standards of success?

a. No, the standard she set is too high. b. No, she is not setting the standards. She is just explaining the meaning of a mastery test. c. Yes, it is. The standard is clear. d. Yes, she sees to it that every student agrees. 8. Teacher Jocelyn considers the multiple-choice type of test the best among the written type of test, so for assessment of learning she uses only multiple choice type of test. It this in accordance with the principle of assessment? a. Yes, well-formulated multiple choice tests measures HOTS. b. Yes, for as long as the multiple-choice tests measures low and high level of thinking skills. c. No, she has only one source of data. d. No, she should make use of varied tools for assessment data-gathering. 9. A professor does not give quiz at all. The students’ grades are based only on the summative assessment results. Does he violate an assessment principle? a. No, that is academic freedom. b. No, he assesses learning and gives grade anyway. c.

TOOLS AND

TASKS My Learning Episode Overview There are different assessment methods, assessment tools and assessment tasks to assess several domains of learning-cognitive, affective and psychomotor. No single assessment method/tool/task can assess all forms of learning. With Gardner’s learner’s multiple intelligences, learning when assessed can be demonstrated in nine (9) different ways and therefore can be assessed in nine (9) different ways, too. Teacher, therefore, should make use of varied assessment tools and tasks. In fact, one principle of assessment is to make use of varied methods and tools. In this Episode, you will see which methods, tools and tasks are used for learners with varied multiple intelligences and in different domains of learning.

My Intended Learning Outcomes At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:  identify different assessment methods, assessment tools and assessment tasks and  select the appropriate assessment method/tool/task for different domains of learning and for the 9 intelligences.

My Learning Episode Overview In the previous Episode you met Learning in different domains. In this Episode you will deal with the different levels which these three domains are processed, taught, learned. You will also observe and reflect on how your Resource Teacher assess learning in theses domains in different in levels. Theirs is the challenge to formulate appropriate exercise questions and tasks are aligned to the level of the learning outcomes.

My Intended Learning Outcomes At the end of this Episode, I will be able to:  classify the level of learning outcomes based on Bloom’s, Kendall’s and Marzano’s taxonomy.  determine if the assessment tools/tasks are aligned to the level of the learning outcomes.

My Performance Criteria I will be rated along the following: a. quality of my observations and documentation, b. completeness and depth of my analysis, c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections, d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and e. time of submission of my portfolio.

My Learning Essentials

The outcomes of the K to 12 Curriculum are spelled out in terms of standards and competencies.

The content standards state what the learners should and be able to do after the teaching-learning process. The performance standards are what the learners are able to do with what they know.

DepEd Order No. 8 s, 2015 states; “Performance standard answer the following questions: 1. What learners can know? 2. How well must learners do their work? 3. How well do learners use their learning or understanding in different situations? 4. How do learners apply their learning or understanding in real-life contexts? 5. What tools and measures should learners use to demonstrate what they know?

These standards are made more specific in the competencies. Competencies are the specific knowledge, skills, values and attitudes that learners are supposed to demonstrate after a teaching-learning process

The K to 12 Curriculum is said to prepare the learner for the 21st century. The K to 12 learners is expected to acquire the 21st Century skills – life and career skills. Learning and innovation skills. Learning and innovation skills include critical thinking, communication skills, collaboration skills, and creativity.

To prepare the learner for the 21st century, then the teaching and learning process in the K to 12 curriculum ought to go beyond simple recall and comprehension. It should reach the level of applying, analyzing, evaluating and synthesizing which are basic to development of 21st Century skills.
