There are three different methods of
assessing affective learning outcomes:
Teacher Observation;
Student Self-Report; and
Peer Rating
1. TEACHER OBSERVATION
Steps in using teacher’s observation:
1. Determine in advance the specific behavior
related to the targets.
2. Develop a list of positive and negative
behaviors
3. Decide the type of observation you want to
use.
TEACHER OBSERVATION
Two methods of teacher observation:
Unstructured Observation
Structured Observation
TEACHER OBSERVATION
Unstructured
Observation is also known as
open-ended observation.
Here, the teacher does not use any rating
scale, or checklist to record observations; it
allows the teacher more freedom to record
what information is to be observed and hoe it
is recorded.
UNSTRUCTURED OBSERVATION
Anecdotal Record- it is a description of student behavior or
report of observed behavioral incidents
UNSTRUCTURED OBSERVATION
Structured observation involves the utilization of
checklist, rating scale and sometimes the use of
rubrics.
With
the behaviors listed, it allows the observer to
focus on more important affect to be assessed.
STRUCTURED OBSERVATION
Student self-report is a method of assessing affective
learning outcomes that allows students to express
their feelings or attitude towards a given specific
classroom activity.
2. STUDENT SELF-REPORT
There are two methods of assessing
affective learning outcomes using
student self-report:
Interview method
Questionnaire and survey methods
2. STUDENT SELF-REPORT
Interviewmethods allow the teacher to probe
and clarify information in order to avoid
ambiguity, though the cstudents cannot be
unanimous with their information and is time
consuming to conduct.
INTERVIEW METHOD
Thereare two types of format of assessing affective
learning outcomes using questionnaire or survey method:
1. Constructed response format is done using a
completion item or an essay item. In the completion
item, the teacher tasks the students about their feelings
to respond to a simple statement by writing a word or
phrase to complete the sais statement.
