My Analysis

1. For a TOS to ensure test content validity, what parts must it have?
To ensure test content validity, the parts must it have is the objectives in the
hierarchy of educational objectives are well represented in the test. Such like the
resulting test that will be constructed by the teacher will be more or less
comprehensive that there is a balance between items that test lower level thinking
skills in the test.

2. Among the TOSs that you researched on, which is a better TOS? Why?

As I analyze the given TOS and the other TOS that I have searched, I can say
that the one that I have searched is better. Because the given TOS is not accurate
and lacks details like the items while the other that I searched on is more accurate,
organize and it gives all the details like every the number of item has content that of
each level of Blooms Taxonomy. Each level in the control have equal number of
items.

3. Can a teacher have a test with content validity even without making a TOS?

A teacher cannot have a test with content validity without making TOS. It is
because when there is no table of specification, the tendency for the test maker to
focus too much on facts and concepts at the knowledge level. If possible all the levels
of Blooms Taxonomy or in Kendal and Marzano must have a question to solve.

4. Explain why the use of TOS enhances that content validity?

TOS is a test map that guides the teacher in constructing a test. As stated on the
learning essentials. A test for that matter possesses content validity only when that
assessment tool or task measures or assesses what it is supposed to measure or assess. TOS
is valid if the content are aligned to the objectives and assessment. These will make the
learner to draw a conclusion. Content validity refers to the content and format of the
instrument. How appropriate is the content? How comprehensive? The quality of
assessment instrument and method used is very important since evaluation and judgement
that the teacher gives on a student are based on the information obtain using these
instruments.
