ASSESSING TODAYS KNOWLEDGE

By: Brien L. Naco BBTE III-1D




In todays educational world, the students are developing also as the time goes. Now, the
students are considered to be a Global Learner meaning they can understand the lesson
thoroughly. Effective Test development requires a systematic, detailed-oriented approach, based
on educational theories of measurement. There are many kinds of assessing, and evaluating a
student. To be able to do this you should know the principles in measurement and evaluation.
To be able to know whether the teaching-learning situation has been effective, the achievement
of the learners must be measured and evaluated. The teacher should know how to construct
more or less valid and reliable form of tests.

A test has to be prepared through many stages. The first thing is: why the test is being
given or what we are trying to measure? For this purpose, we have to prepare educational
objectives for the sub-units, units, and the courses. Then we have to enlist in detail the Specific
Outcomes of Learning, which will determine the specific pieces of information, thinking,
application, etc. for which items have to be written. The idea of educational objectives provides
to us a new way of thinking about teaching, learning and testing.

Assessment of student learning provides evidence so that educational decisions can be
made. We may use the evidence to help us evaluate (or judge the merit of) a teaching program or
we may use the evidence to make statements about student competence or to make decisions
about the next aspect of teaching for particular students.

After the teacher has covered a number of lessons for a certain period of time, the next
important task that he is expected to perform is the assessment of the performance of the students
in the class. He is now to assess whether or not the students have absorbed the lessons taken.

A teacher serves as an assessor and evaluator of the student learning. By the use of the
use of reliable and valid instruments, teachers can evaluating the outcome of learning and
diagnose learning difficulties of students. This implies that the teacher understands the various
theories underlying the measurement and evaluation of the student performance.
