ANALYZE 1.
1. Which assessment tools/tasks were most commonly used by teacher? Which ones were
rarely used? Why were they rarely said?
The most commonly used is the multiple choice and short answer type since it is one of
the common and best way to let students understand and comprehend the question.
2. Based on your answers found in the Tables above in which type of assessment tools and
tasks were the Resource Teachers most skilled in test construction? Least skilled? –

I believe the short answer type and multiple-choice questions are the most important.
Multiple choice because the instructor receives the factual knowledge about their topic and
offers the students alternatives on the right responses, and essay kinds because the teacher
uses or integrates students' experiences on the questions about the issue. These will assist
students with using their critical thinking abilities, as well as remembering and applying the
ideals gained throughout the class. Furthermore, based on my table response, I believe our
teacher lacked the utmost expertise in creating the test.

3. Can an essay or other written requirements, even if it is a written paper-and-pencil test,

be considered an authentic form of assessment? Explain your answer.

Yes, since essays and other written assignments still talked about their
experiences and how they plan to use them in real-world circumstances. Assume that
pupils can use what they've learned and profit from it in the community or in their
personal lives.

REFLECT

How good are you at constructing traditional assessment tools? Which do you
find the most difficult to construct? Any lesson/s learned?

I believe I am effective at designing essay-style questions because I want to

discover what they know by watching their responses to the questions I give them. This
will also see whether they can elaborate on their responses. Multiple choice is the hardest
to create since it takes time, and I have to consider which questions and alternatives to
include so that the students are not confused when they read it.
