Purpose:
This self-assessment instrument is designed for use of those who are being trained to join the teaching profession and those
who are already teaching. The instrument could be used as a measure of their belief of their capability in attaining the
standards set for beginning and proficient teachers as defined in the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers
(PPST). It is important for a teacher to meet the standards of the teaching profession as this is a possible basis in designing
their professional development programs and in gauging the effectiveness of their instruction.

Instructions: This part of the instrument has 37 items where indicators of two career stages in the PPST are provided adapting the Semantic Differential Scale by Charles E. Osgood (1957). It will take you about 30
minutes to answer the whole part. Indicate the extent to which you believe you can demonstrate each of the given competencies of a beginning or a proficient teacher by ticking one of the following scales. NOTE:
DO NOT CHECK THE CELL where you know you COULD NOT READILY DEMONSTRATE the given indicators of the standards. This tool has an electronic version that you may use in doing your self-
assessment.

The following are sample evidences that two respondents have in mind they could produce as a proof of the attainment of the given standards.
Respondent 1
1. Table of Specifications (TOS) that one has prepared as basis in designing a summative test for a quarter lesson with proof of validation by the immediate superior.
2. Actual Summative Test that one has designed considering the whole-month objectives covered in the TOS based on the K to 12 Curriculum with corrections made by the immediate superior.
Which of the 6-point scale could Respondent 1 use to describe his/her capability in attaining the given standards?
Self-Efficacy Score of Respondent 1: 2 out of a 6-point scale as the two evidences shown can demonstrate knowledge of how to design a summative assessment consistent with curriculum requirements.
Respondent 2
1. Table of Specifications (TOS) that one has prepared as basis in designing a summative test for a quarter lesson approved by an immediate superior.
2. Actual Summative Test that one has designed considering the whole-month objectives covered in the TOS based on the K to 12 Curriculum with results showing that at least 80% of the class got a
passing grade.
3. Formative Assessment developed for one of the competencies in the K to 12 program with key to corrections and feedback for every correct and incorrect answer.
Which of the 6-point scale could Respondent 2 use to describe his/her capability in attaining the standards?
Self-Efficacy Score of Respondent 2 : 6 out of a 6-point scale as one believes he or she can show three (3) evidences of one’s proficiency in designing a summative and formative assessment consistent with curriculum
requirements.

The following are sample evidences that two respondents have in mind they could produce as a proof of the attainment of the given standards.
Respondent 1
1. Formative test designed using an online form (i.e. Google Form) drafted for checking of the immediate superior.
2. A Daily Lesson Log prepared that shows learning resources from different media like print-based materials, videos, and internet sources that is yet to be approved by an immediate superior.
3. An e-module designed with integration of videos from Knowledge Channel resources that students could view to see the lesson applied in reality ready for checking of the immediate superior.
Which of the 6-point scale could Respondent 1 use to describe his/her capability in attaining the given standards?
Self-Efficacy Score of Respondent 1: 3 out of a 6-point scale as one believes he or she can readily produce the three (3) evidences to demonstrate capability in the positive use of ICT to facilitate the teaching and
learning process.
Respondent 2
1. Formative test designed using an online form (i.e. MS Form) with automated feedback provided for every option in the test that students could receive after submitting their answers in the test. Such
test has been used several times to students indicating that the online test is effective in improving learning.
2. A Daily Lesson Log prepared that shows learning resources from different media like print-based materials, videos, and internet sources approved for implementation of the immediate superior.
3. An e-module designed with integration of videos from Knowledge Channel resources that students could view to see the lesson applied in reality which has been approved for implementation by the
immediate superior.
Which of the 6-point scale could Respondent 2 use to describe his/her capability in attaining the standards?
Self-Efficacy Score of Respondent 2 : 6 out of a 6-point scale as one believes he or she can readily produce the three (3) evidences to demonstrate proficiency in the positive use of ICT to facilitate the teaching and
learning process.
Now, begin assessing your capability to readily produce evidences of attainment of each of the indicators of the standards for beginning and proficient teachers.
