LESSON 1: History of Measurement and Evaluation in the Philippines
Clemente, Martinez, and Uichanco outlined the development of testing in the Philippines
in four periods. The first was before 1898; second, the last three years of the 19 th century (1898
– 1900) and the 1st quarter of the 20th century 1901 – 1925); third, 1926 to 1956; and fourth,
1957 – 1963.
In the FIRST PERIOD before 1898, it was characterized by oral and performance tests
where there was little recognition on individual’s differences.
SECOND PERIOD was characterized by uniform final examinations throughout the
country. The first standardized test adapted in the Philippines was the Philippine Vocabulary
Test in 1924. In 1925, the Monroe Survey Commission evaluated conditions obtaining in
Philippine Public Schools.
THIRD PERIOD, 1926 – 1956, marked the abolition of the common final examinations
prepared in the General Office each school year, decentralization of the final achievement test
was adapted; and number to certain national schools was initiated. In 1950, giving of
competitive examinations for selection of elementary grades teachers took place.
FOURTH PERIOD, 1957 – 1963, much attention was directed toward personality
development and evaluation not only in schools but in business and industrial corporations in
1957. Achievement testing, after more than three decades of decentralization, shifted to the
centralized system again for three school years (1960 – 1962).
All fourth-year secondary students in public and private schools took common final
examinations. At the primary level, the uniform final examinations were limited to the Grade IV
pupils of the public schools for purposes of promotion. The common final examinations in the
fourth-year high school and Grade IV were stopped in 1963.
On April 23, 1978, the FIRST PROFESSIONAL BOARD EXAMINATION FOR
TEACHERS (PBET) has been administered pursuant to Presidential Decree No. 1006,
professionalizing the teachers.
Every year, PBET has been administered by the Civil Service Commission And
Department Of Education, Culture And Sports. Thus, there were 18 PBET administered
since 1978 to 1995. In NOVEMBER 1995 was the last PBET administration.
PROFESSIONAL LICENSURE EXAMINATION FOR TEACHERS (PLET) given by the
Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) was the successor of PBET by virtue of Republic Act
7836 known as Professional Teachers Professionalization Act of 1994.
On August 24 and 25, 1996 was the first administration of PLET; SECOND
ADMINISTRATION was on August 23 & 24, 1997 and the eighth administration was on August
31, 2003.
On November 25, 1975, the FIRST NATIONAL COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAMINATION
(NCEE) was administered to all high school graduates by the Department of Education, Culture
and Sports (DECS) pursuant to Presidential Decree No. 146.

Starting in school year 1974 – 1975 to 1993 – 1994, all first-year college applicants
should meet the NCEE cut – off score to qualify them to enroll in a baccalaureate course in any
public and private institutions of higher learning. The last administration of NCEE was on
September 2, 1993.
NSAT (National Secondary Assessment Test) is the successor of NCEE per DECS Order
No. 31, s. 1993, dated May 21, 1993.
The results of the NSAT was transmuted into percentage grades and should be given an
1th
equivalent of of the general average of each subject area in English, Filipino, Mathematics
5
and Science and Technology.
The first administration of NSAT was in September 1994. In 2003, NSAT was
discontinued.
On August 31, 1993, NEAT (National Elementary Achievement Test) for all Grade VI
pupils was administered pursuant to DECS Order No. 30, s. 1993 dated May 20, 1993. The
test covered in four areas, namely, (1) English, (2) Mathematics, (3) Science, and (4)
Heograpiya/Kasaysayan/ Sibika.
In 2002, NEAT was discontinued and replaced by NAT (National Achievement Test) given
to Grade IV pupils and first year high school students by year Department of Education
(DepEd). In February 2013, was the first administration of NAT.
EDUCATIONAL MEASUREMENT
refers to the use of educational assessments and the analysis of data such as scores
obtained from educational assessments to infer the abilities and proficiencies of
students
Chinese were the first people to utilize the examination to measure ability. It was
informally begun in 225 B.C. and became a definite civil service examination system in
29B.C. (Ross, 32)

composition scales.
PSYCHOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT
is the development of procedures to measure people's characteristics like intelligence
or personality
Gustav Theodore Fechner
published a book entitled "Elemente der Psychophysic” which contained the
beginnings of quantitative psychological measurement.
QUANTITATIVE PSYCHOLOGY
the American Psychological Association defines Quantitative Psychology as "the study
of methods and techniques for the measurement of human attributes, the statistical
and mathematical modeling of psychological processes, the design of research studies,
and the analysis of psychological data".
HERMANN LUDWIG FERDINAND von HELMHOLTZ (H.L. F. Helmholtz)
his greatest contributions were his experiments in the sensory fields of vision and
hearing and in thee measurement of the speed impulse and reaction-time. (Flores,3)
Wilhelm Wundt
Established the first psychological laboratory in Leipzig, Germany.
His experiments on visual, auditory, cutaneous, olfactory and others resulted in the
study of individual differences in physical and mental traits.
Francis Galton& J. Mc Keen Cattell
conducted earliest experiments in learning about the mind.
Galton - devised a whistle and tests that measured discrimination of heat, weight,
pain, and sound. He also measured mental imagery.
- his most important contribution was his statistical analysis in which he
suggested a graphical method of correlation.
Cattell - made tests which he used in measuring keenness of sight and hearing,
rate and accuracy of movement, ability to perceive weight, pitch and time,
sensitivity to pain, imagery and memory. He suggested the term mental tests in
1890. (Ross, 41)

Alfred Binet
a French psychologist who was the first to devise an instrument to measure the more
complex mental functions. He introduced the term "mental age
He developed tests on complex mental functions measuring mental images,
imagination, memory, observation, attention, description, and similar mental
processes with the cooperation of Th. Simon, a psychiatrist.
Stern
he introduced the concept of representing intelligence as the ratio of mental age to
chronological age and suggested the term "mental quotient' in 1912 which became
I.Q. (Ross,26)
Group Intelligence Test
started during the first world war. It was tried with the recruits in the United States
Army. It was first constructed by Arthur Otis with the help of Robert Yerkes and Lewis
Terman.
Group Intelligence Tests Developed in 1917

2. Army Beta - performance test
Pintner and Paterson
are the first men to construct a performance test to measure the intelligence of deaf
children called Pintner - Paterson Performance Scale
Carl E. Seashore
a pioneer in the measurement of aptitude. He constructed the first test to measure the
musical ability called the "Seashore Test of Musical Ability which came out in 1915.
Other Aptitude Tests

High academic grades and high levels of intelligence are not the sole indicators of success
in certain types of jobs. Traits such as attitude, sociability, temperament, emotion,
values, vocational interests, extroversion, introversion, levels of dominance and
submissiveness are important factors to consider in job placement.
I. Definition of Terms:
MEASUREMENT
comes from the Old French word “mesure” which means “limit or quantity”
it is a QUANTITIVE description of an object’s characteristic or attribute
Process of determining the quantity of achievement of learners by means of
appropriate measuring instrument. (Calderon and Gonzales, 1993)
TESTING
formal, systematic procedure for gathering information (Russel & Airasian, 2012)
TEST
a TOOL or INSTRUMENT used to measure the learning progress of a student
a tool comprised of a set of questions administered during a fixed period of time
under comparable conditions of all students
Tests are the most dominant form of assessment. The issue concerning its
effectiveness to measure and effectively evaluate learning is resolved if questions
target and reflect learning outcomes and covers the different learning domains
TESTS are traditional assessment. They may not be the best way how much the
students have learned but they still provide valuable information about student
learning and their progress.
TYPES OF TEST
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
Avoid Plagiarism
WRITTEN TEST
activities wherein students either select or provide a response to prompt
it has its strong points
can be administered to a large group at one time
can also be used to assess lower and higher levels of cognition provided that
questions are phrased appropriately.

DIAGNOSTIC TEST
a measurement which identifies the weaknesses of an individual’s achievement
in any field and which serves as basis for remedial instruction.
SPEED TEST
measures the speed and accuracy of the examinee within the time limits
imposed. “alertness test”
ACCOMPLISHMENT TEST
a measure of achievement in which this test is usually for individual’s subjects
in the curriculum as a whole.
SCALE TEST
series of items arranged in the order of difficulty.
PLACEMENT TEST
used to measure the type of job an applicant should fill or the student be
enrolled after ceasing from school.
Functions of Testing
a. Instructional Functions
2. Tests provide a means of feedback to the instructor and the student. They can be used
for self-diagnosis. Students can assess their own learning and performance. Test
results guide teachers in adjusting their pedagogical practices to match students’
learning styles. The impact of a test on teaching and learning is called wash back. The
effect may be beneficial or harmful to teachers and learners tend to tailor instructional
activities and learning processes to the demands of the test.
3. Tests can motivate learning. In a meta-analysis study, it was shown that frequent
testing increases academic preparation (study time) and academic achievement.
Frequent testing also produces a more positive attitude among students.
4. Tests can facilitate learning. The effect of testing had been studied by researchers
indicating improved performance when learners are given the opportunity to practice
retrieval before giving the final test. Prompt feedback informs students how they are
doing. By acting on teacher’s feedback, student can improve in subsequent
performance.
5. Test are a useful means of overlearning. Overlearning means continued study, review,
interaction or practice of the same material even after concepts and skills had been
mastered. Preparation for a scheduled test induces overlearning.
b. Administrative Functions
1. Tests can provide a mechanism of quality control. Through tests, a school can
determine the strengths and weaknesses of its curricula. Administrators can devise
ways to improve outcomes and assessment, implement and check for improvement.

3. Tests can increase the quality of selection decisions. In using test for classification
purposes, schools can select students for specific programs. Through testing, a
teacher can select students who would benefit. For instance, in tutorial or remedial
programs.
Tests are useful for program evaluation and research. Test are utilized in studies
that determine effectiveness of new pedagogical techniques.
d. Guidance Functions
EVALUATION
Process of determining the quality or worth of achievement in terms of certain standards.
Process of summing up the results of measurements or tests, giving them some meaning
based on value judgements.
ASSESSMENT
a vital element in the curriculum development process.
used to determine students’ learning need, monitor progress and examine their
performance against identified student learning outcomes
OBE begins with a clear-cut statement of the learning outcomes – what the students
should know, understand and be able to do.
Assessment tasks should provide evidences of how learners can use acquired knowledge
academically and professionally in appropriate ways.
TRADITIONAL ASSESSMENT
a conventional method of testing which usually produce a written document,
such as quiz, exam, or paper.
AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENT
a form of assessment in which students are asked to perform real-world tasks
that demonstrate meaningful application of essential knowledge and skills

✓ The use of qualitative descriptions to describe student’s performance.
✓ Evaluation does not involve measurement or tests….
ex. OBSERVATIONS are non-test procedures which can be used to diagnose
learning problems among students
AREA 2
✓ Non – Test measure for evaluation.
ex. Ranking used by teachers in assigning grades
AREA 3
✓ Convergence of the three.
✓ Teacher-made tests fall in this region
AREA 4
✓ Non-evaluative Test Measures
✓ Proficiency Test for Research. Test scores used in correlational studies (Test-scores
and motivation)
AREA 5
✓ Non-evaluative
✓ Non-Test Measures
✓ Assigning numerical codes to responses in research studies like nominal scales
(Labeling educational attainment)
Evaluation, measurement and test are ALL FORMs of assessment because they provide
information about the learner and his/her achievement. However, Tests comprise only a

In order to make assessment work for everyone – students, teachers, and other players in
the education system should have an understanding of what assessment provides and how it is
used to explain the dynamics of student learning.
Parents. They should be involved in the assessment process. They are valued source of
assessment information on the educational history and learning habits of their children, most
especially for preschoolers who do not yet understand their development progress.
Administrators and Program Staff. They use assessment to identify strengths and
weaknesses of the program.
