Assessment in Learning 2
Traditional assessments are “tests” taken with paper and pencil that are usually
true/false, matching, or multiple choice. These assessments are easy to grade,
but only test isolated application, facts, or memorized data at lower-level thinking
skills. Traditional assessment provides little evidence of what a language learner
actually can do with the language.
In order to evaluate what a language learner can do with the language, a student
must be evaluated using various performance tasks and assessments.
Learners must use more complex, higher-order thinking skills. They must reason,
problem-solve, or collaborate with others to produce individual responses.
Rubrics, provided ahead of time so learners know their expectations, are used to
evaluate students on multiple competency levels.
For me, using performance-based assessment can help the teacher observe and
makes judgment about the students' demonstration of a skill or in creating a
product, constructing a response, or making a presentation.

REFLECTION
Answer the questions:
1. What 3 things you have learned most?
I have learn least on how creating scoring points and the methods of scoring
performance task.
What are the types of rubric and scoring points and their advantages?
There are two types of rubrics, the Holistic and Analytic rubric. Holistic rubric is a
type of rubric that requires the teacher to score an overall process or product as a
whole while Analytic rubric is a type of rubric that provides information regarding
performance in each components parts of a task, making it useful for diagnosing
specific strengths and weaknesses of the learners.
Rubrics are powerful tool for booth teaching and assessment, it can improve
students performance, as well as monitor it, students become more thoughtful
judges of the quality of their own and others work. Teachers appreciate rubrics
because their “accordion” nature allows them to accommodate heterogeneous
classes.
4. How do teachers determine the types of scoring tools for performance assessments?
In order to determine the types of scoring tools for performance assessments you
must have a careful planning because there are different steps that should be
followed in order to have a basis in the scoring rubric. The first step is the
feasibility of scoring system because there are factors that we should consider in
making it. Lastly, the criteria you made must clear, specific and precise because
this will serve as your guide to assess the performance of the learners. Since
there are 2 types of rubrics that can be used, the criteria that was made must be
clear, precise, and accurate because this will serve as your guide.
SELF-ASSESSMENT
Directions: Read carefully the questions and answer them with your own ideas. Provide
your own answer sheets.
1. Define the following words:
a. Performance-based assessment
c. Product performance-based
It is concern on the product alone and not on the process. It is more concern to
the outcome or the performance of the learner. It also focuses on achievement of
the learner.
d. Performance task
e. Performance criteria
2. What are the different kinds of performance-based assessment? Explain each briefly.
Performances allow students to show how they can apply knowledge and
skills under the direct observation of the teacher. These are generally done in
the classroom since they involve teacher observation at the time of
performance. Much of the work may be prepared outside the classroom but
the students “perform” in a situation where the teacher or others may observe
the fruits of their preparation. Performances may also be based on in-class
preparation.
4. Cite some learning objectives where you can utilize performance-based activities.
5. Present and discuss the different ways of assessing and recording performance-based
activities.
There is no product
Scoring often questionable because it is not reliable, most especially if the scoring guide
or rubrics are not properly prepared.
It measures only a limited scope of learning objectives. Since one of the advantage of the
PBA is “Specific, direct and understandable information about the students are available
to parents”, as mentioned. PBA appeared to measures only a limited scope of learning as
it only caters the “specific” of aspects of learning to be measured
Traditional Assessment
Tests taken with paper and pencil that are usually true/false, matching or
multiple choice.
Easy to grade, but only test isolated application, facts or memorized
data at lower-level thinking skills
Provides little evidence of what a learner actually do.
Performance Assessment
10. Present and discuss the different steps in developing performance-based assessment.
Define the purpose of assessment
The teacher should clearly define the purpose of assessment.it is
considered in making decision in the subsequent steps of the process. It
means you should stipulate the purpose of an assessment, is it intended
to measure the learnings acquired of the students? Is it intended to know
what you might do in order to enhance your teaching process? Or both?.
By that, the goal of making an assessment will be achieved.
12. What is the importance of scoring rubrics in assessing the performance of the students?
13. What are the advantages of analytic rubric over holistic rubric?
The following are the advantages of analytic rubric over holistic rubric:
- Analytic rubric is useful when teachers want to provide diagnostic
information and feedback for the learner.
- More useful for formative assessment.
- Analytic rubric allows students to identify their strengths and
weaknesses more clearly.
14. Give five examples of performance task in the areas of Mathematics, Physical education,
Science, and English that you have planned to teach.

18. Are the scores of students using the performance-based assessment always reliable?
Why?
19. Is it possible to commit an error when a teacher observes and judges the performances
of the students? Present and describe the possible errors that can be committed?
Yes, it is possible to commit an error when a teacher observes and judges the
performance of the students. These errors can be generosity error, severity error
and halo effect.
o Generosity error is committed when a teacher overrates the
performance of the students or favors the high performing
students in the class.
o Severity error is when the teacher favors the low performing
students in the class.
o Halo effect is committed when judging individual characteristics
in terms a general impression (Gronlund, 1998). These types of
errors can also be committed by the evaluator in portfolio
assessment.
o Personal biased is committed when judging individual in terms of
student’s fame, and academic track line.
20. Present some issues related to grading when using performance-based assessment.
21. In the area of your specialization, identify five (5) learning outcomes that can be best
measured by performance-based assessment. For every learning outcome, develop two
performance tasks.

In assessing the ability to bake a cake, I believe the rating scale is the best
assessment tool to use. When we use rating scale we can evaluate and record
information on a scale and take note of the finer distinction like the presence or
absence of a behavior. Furthermore, using rating scale the teacher or the
evaluator can indicate to what degree the standards are met.

Answer the questions:
1.What 3 things have you learned most?
The 3 things I have learned is about the affective domain, Assessment tools and
rubrics which are very helpful in making an assessment in the future.
SELF- ASSESSMENT
Directions: Read carefully the questions and answer them with your own ideas. Provide
your own answer sheets.
1. Define the following terms briefly:
Affective domain
- one of the three domains that deals with things in emotional
concept such as feelings, values, attitude, and motivation.
Motivation
Attitude
- pertains to the learned or established predisposition to respond
unto something or someone in favorable or unfavorable manner.
2. Present and discuss the different levels of affective domain. Give them example for each
level.
Level 1: Receiving (Attention). It is concerned with getting, holding and directing student’s
attention. The student’s attention is illustrated when listening attentively to the discussion
of the teacher, participating to all the classroom activities, and being aware of the
importance of learning and classroom proceedings.
Level 2: Responding (Interest). It is concerned with the active participation of the learners
by showing interest on what they are doing. Interest can be shown by completing the
assigned work, active participation of the students in class discussion, volunteering for
tasks, showing interest in the subject enjoying helping others, and willingness to answer
questions.
Examples; (1) Demonstrating belief in the democratic process and; (2) showing the ability
to solve problems.
Examples: (1) explaining the role of systematic planning in solving problems; and (2)
prioritizing time effectively to meet the needs of the organization, family, and self.
3. Develop affective learning objective in the levels of receiving, responding, valuing,
organization, and characterization by value.
CONTENT YES NO
1. All the group members participate in the laboratory activities.
2. Answer the questions imposed by their teacher and classmates
