What is assessment?• Assessment is the
process of gathering quantitative and/or qualitative information and organizing them into an interpretable form for easy judgment.
Role of Assessment in Education
4
Why do we Assess?
• Assessment for learning
• Assessment of learning
• Assessment as learning
6
Assessment FOR Learning
• Placement – done prior to instructionTo assess the needs of the learners.To have a basis in planning for relevant
instruction.To place students in a specific learning
groups to facilitate learning.
Assessment FOR Learning
• Diagnostic – done before and during instruction
To determine recurring or persistent difficulties.
To help formulate a plan for detailed remedial instruction.
Assessment FOR Learning
• Formative – during instruction
To continuously monitor the students level of attainment of the learning objectives. (Stiggins, 2005)
To communicate clearly promptly to the students the results of assessment for them to know their strengths and weaknesses and the progress of their learning.
Assessment OF Learning
• Summative Assessment – done after instructionTo certify students knowledge and the level of
their proficiency or competency.To reveal the results of assessment whether or
not instructions have successfully achieved the curriculum outcomes.
To have basis for marks and grades.
Assessment AS Learning
Learning to assess oneself.oAssessment develops in the learner personal
responsibility in learning by generating his/her personal goals based on standards set.
oAssessment involves the learner actively reflecting on his/her progress (metacognition) in relation to his her goals.
Principles Underlying Assessment
1. Assessment is an integral part of teaching and learning process.
2. The learner is the heart of the assessment process.
Principles Underlying Assessment
3. Assessment provides a whole and not a snapshot of a learner.
4. The picture of a learner’s performance is more reliable and complete when assessment data comes from multiple sources.
Principles Underlying Assessment
5. Assessment should provide valid information on the actual processes, products, and values expected of the learner.
14
Principles Underlying Assessment
6. Assessment should be educative that it makes a positive contribution to student learning.
7. Assessment criteria should be explicit so that the basis for judgment is clear, pre specified and public.
Principles Underlying Assessment
8. Assessment should be fair to all students.
9. Effective assessment practice is based on the view of assessment as learning, assessment for learning, and assessment of learning.

It is also standards- based as it seeks to ensure that teachers will teach the standards . The student’s attainment of standards in terms of content And performance is a critical evidence of learning.
Levels of Assessment
Level Percentage Weight
Knowledge 15%
Process or Skills 25%
Understanding 30%
Products/Performances 30%
Total 100%
The levels are defined as follows:
1. Knowledge – refers to the substantive content of the curriculum, the facts and information that the student acquires
2. Process – refers to cognitive operations that the student performs on facts and information for the purpose of constructing meanings and understandings
The levels are defined as follows:
3.Understandings – refers to enduring big ideas, principles and generalizations inherent to the discipline, which may be assessed using the facets of understanding
a. Explanation – give examples, make insightful connections
b. Interpretation – make it personal through images, anecdotes, analogiesc. Application – can adapt/transfer understanding into real contexts
The levels are defined as follows:
3.Understandings
d. Perspective – understand different points of view, sees the big picture
e. Empathy – understand and value the perspectives/point of view of others
f. Self-Knowledge – show metacognitive awareness, perceive the prejudices and
habits mind that shape and impede self understanding
The levels are defined as follows:
4. Products/Performances – refers to real-life application of understandings as evidenced by the student’s performance of authentic tasks. It considers children’s MI.
No single testing format can provide a complete picture of
student learning; therefore multiple formats should be
used.
Use of Multiple Measures
1. Knowledge What do we want students to know? How do we want them to express or provide
evidence of what they know?

Report Card
At the end of the quarter, the performance of students shall be described based on the following levels of proficiency:
Level of Proficiency Equivalent Numerical Value
Beginning 74% and below
Developing 75-79%
Approaching Proficiency
80-84%
Proficient 85-89%
Advanced 90% and above
Definition of Levels of Proficiency
• Beginning (B)– The student at this level struggles with his/her understanding; prerequisite and fundamental knowledge and/or skills have not been acquired or developed adequately to aid understanding.
• Developing (D)– The student at this level possesses the minimum knowledge and skills and core understandings, but needs help throughout the performance of authentic tasks
Definition of Levels of Proficiency
• Approaching Proficiency(AP) – The student at this level has developed the fundamental knowledge and skills and core understandings and, with little guidance from the teacher and/or with some assistance from peers, can transfer these understandings through authentic performance tasks.
Definition of Levels of Proficiency
• Proficient – The student at this level has developed the fundamental knowledge and skills and core understandings and can transfer them independently through authentic performance tasks.
Definition of Levels of Proficiency
• Advanced (A) – The student at this level exceeds the core requirements in terms of knowledge, skills and understandings and can transfer them automatically and flexibly through authentic performance tasks.

“Teachers create the classroom environment by the assessment choices they make about
format, frequency, instructional function and feedback. These choices reflect the teacher’s
knowledge of the subject, students, assessment principles, their instructional practices and their
relationship with students.”- Brookhart, 1997
