Motivation in education can have several effects on how students learn and
their behavior towards subject matter. It can direct behavior toward particular goals
- lead to increase effort and energy; increase initiation of, and persistence in activities;
enhance cognitive processing; determine what consequences are reinforcing; lead to
improve performance;
There are two kinds of motivation: Intrinsic motivation brings pleasure, or make
feel people feel what they are learning is morally significant and extrinsic motivation
which comes when a student compelled to do something because of factors external
to him
Self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is an impression that one is capable of performing in
a certain manner or attaining certain goals. It is a belief that one has the capabilities to
execute the courses of actions required to manage prospective situations. It is also a
belief (whether or not accurate) that one has the power to produce that effect.
Activity 1: Discussion
a. pick individual items to include. Choose individual items that you know
correlate highly with the total score across items
b. choose how to scale each item, or construct labels for each scale value to
represent interpretation to be assigned to the number
c. ask your target audience to mark each item
d. Derive a target’s score by adding the values that target identifies on each item.
6. Checklists
Checklists are the most common and perhaps the easiest instrument in the
affective domain. It consists of simple items that the student or teacher marks as
“absent” or “present” Here are the steps in the construction of a checklist:
a. enumerates all the attributes and characteristics you wish to observe
b. arranges this attribute as a “shopping list” of characteristics
c. asks students to mark those attributes which are present and to leave blank
those which are not
Activity 2: Discussion
A. Give examples of the following tools/instruments used in assessing attitudes(Cite
reference):
1. Self-Report
2. Rating Scales
3. Semantic Differential Scales
4. Thurstone Scales
5. Likert Scales
B. Construct a Rating Scale for each of the following situations
1. measuring attitude towards Mathematics
2. motivation to study instrument
C. Construct a checklist for each of the following activities:
1. classroom observation for a practice teacher
2. checklist for behavior demonstrating good manners and right conduct
Types of Portfolios
a. Documentation Portfolio. As the name implies, this approach involves a collection of
work over time showing growth and improvement reflecting students' learning of
identified outcomes. This portfolio is also called “growth portfolio” in the literature. It
can include everything from brainstorming activities to drafts to finished products.
b. Process Portfolio. It demonstrates all facets or phrases of the learning process. As
such, these portfolios contain an extensive number of reflective journal, think logs and
other related forms of metacognitive processing

c. Showcase Portfolio. It only shows the best of the students’ outputs and products. As
such, this type of portfolio is best used for summative evaluation of students’ mastery
of key curriculum outcomes.
ACTIVITY 3 – DISCUSSION
Direction: discuss the following and write your answer on the space provided.
1. What is the importance of student-teacher conferences? Discuss its importance
in light of portfolio assessment.
2. What is the main philosophy behind portfolio assessment? Discuss this basic
philosophy.
3. How does portfolio assessment differ from traditional testing and from other
authentic assessment methods?
2. Reports to Parents/Guardians •
Inform parents/guardians on the progress of their child
Communicate objectives to parents so they can help promote learning
Communicate how well objectives are met so parents can plan better
Grades and Report Cards should promote and enhance learning rather than
frustrate and discourage students. Given to students and parents are asked to sign
this call for parent-teacher conferences such that report cards will effectively function
as motivation for further learning
TYPES OF GRADING AND REPORTING SYSTEMS
1. Traditional Letter- Grade system
Students’ performance are summarized by means of letters
Easy to understand but is of limited value when used as the sole report
They end up being a combination of achievement, effort, work habits, behavior
Difficult to interpret
Do not indicate patterns of strengths & weaknesses
3. Checklist of Objectives
Objectives of the courses are enumerated
After each objective, the students’ level of achievement is indicated
Very detailed reporting system
More informative for parents and students
Time-consuming to prepare
POTENTIAL PROBLEM: keeping list manageable and understandable
4. Letters to Parents/Guardians
5. Portfolios
A set of purposefully selected work, with commentary by student and teacher
Useful for: – Showing students’ strengths & weaknesses – Illustrating range of
students’ work – Showing progress over time or stages of a project – Teaching
students about objectives/standards they are to meet
6. Parent-Teacher Conferences
Guidelines
• Properly weight each component to create a composite •
• Normally agreed upon by school officials 30% 25% 30% 15% Quiz
Project/Assignment Class Participation Periodic Test
• Principal Components Analysis – more scientific approach; hardly practiced in
schools because of difficulty
• Put all components on same scale to weight properly: – Equate range of scores
– Convert all to T-scores or other standard scores
Activity 4 - DISCUSSION
1. In this time of crisis, what type of grading and reporting system is most
appropriate? Support your answer.
2. The closure of schools around the world due to the global pandemic posed
serious challenges on the delivery of quality basic education. As a teacher,
what do you think are the fundamental concerns in terms of curriculum
standards that need to be addressed in order to ensure learning continuity?
Cite a specific example. Do you think these concerns could be solved by
teachers alone? Why or why not?
3. What is/are the role of the parents and teachers in this pandemic time?
2. Follow this sequence in compiling your portfolio. Below are the guided
questions taken from your module.
