d. Affective- the behavior on understanding the implications of learning to life.
e. Product learning- the output on how well did the student comprehend the topic.

2. How do we formulate the Psychomotor Learning Targets? Expound.

We can formulate the Psychomotor learning target by means of imitation to what we just learned
and constant practice until we can manipulate what we have practiced. Precision takes form
when we have already aquired the advanced skill even when we do not give too much effort on
doing it.

3. What are the preparations of Classroom Assessment?

There is the Planning stage, monitoring, evaluating and the reflecting.

4. Illustrate and explain the Steps in Classroom Testing and Assessment.

d. Prepare the Table of Specifications
e. Prepare the Test.

5. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of the Multiple-Choice Test.

The major advantage of this is that the students will know even for a glimpse what an answer
could be unlike in identifying it, but the greater disadvantage would be because it is easy, they
wouldn’t bother analyzing the questions properly and distinguish words that meant the other
way.

6. What are the advantages and disadvantages of Binary Test Items?

The advantage of this would be the students can answer test quite easily but the biggest
disadvantage is that they would not be consistent in analyzing questions.

7. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the Matching Type test?
A matching type test is used to assess and build understanding of a topic based on a content
specified criteria. The advantage of using this technique is to be able to organize different points
of a topic while the disadvantage would be it is broad that in a sense it can be a little frustrating
to some examinees.

8. What are the advantages and limitations of oral questioning?

The main advantage of limiting oral questions is to be able to give a point and prove it
and the learners will need to find ways to expound their own learning by their own
experiences.
