learning?
1) Teaching dossiers(files,records,reports,databases)

Advantages of Observation
Unstructured interview:
- Questions and procedure may be decided in
advance
- Provides flexibility in order of questioning,
modifying or adding questions instantly,
if needed. Can take different forms
Focused interview – aims at some
particular event or experience rather
than general lines of inquiry.
Projects
are useful in theme-based tasks to be
completed as assignments in groups.
Advantages:
Provide a cumulative record. In the process, a
picture of how a skill or knowledge area
develops emerges.
Enables the student to demonstrate to others,
his/her learning and progress.
The learner becomes an active participant in
learning and assessment.
Rating is the expression of opinion or judgment
regarding some situation, object or character.
The opinions are usually expressed on a scale of values.
Rating scale refers to a scale with a set of points
which describe varying degree of the dimension of an
attribute being measured.
Can be used to evaluate human behavior – reactions,
tendencies, opinions, values etc.
Can be used to record the quantified observations of a
social situation – program, campaign, customs etc.
Can be used to describe activities of an entire group and
the changes in the situation surrounding them
PURPOSE OF RATING SCALE:
•Teacher Performance/Effectiveness
•Personality, anxiety, stress, emotional intelligence
etc.
•Institutional appraisal including appraisal of
courses, practices and programmes.
1.Numerical scales – A sequence of defined numbers is assigned to each
behavior criterion/description,
e.g. Use of stimulus variation:
1. Excellent 2. Very good 3.Good 4. Fair 5. Poor
