Activity 1.

Answer the following questions

1. Define the following words:

a. Portfolio assessment – Based on my understanding, A portfolio is a collection of student
work that shows how hard a student has worked, how much they have learned, and what they
have accomplished in different areas of the curriculum. A portfolio assessment can be an
examination of samples of work experiences and documents chosen by the student that relate to
the outcomes being evaluated. It can also look at and support progress toward academic goals,
such as student efficacy.

b. Student’s portfolio – On my readings, It is about the collection of academic work and other
forms of educational evidence gathered for the purposes of evaluating coursework quality,
learning progress, and academic achievement. Determining whether students have met learning
standards or other academic requirements for courses, grade-level promotion, and graduation.
Assisting students in reflecting on their academic goals and progress as learners. And creating a
permanent archive of academic work. Advocates of student portfolios argue that compiling,
reviewing, and evaluating student work over time can provide a deeper and more accurate view
of what students have learned and are capable of doing than more traditional activities that only
measure what students know at a specific point in time, such as standardized tests, quizzes, or
final exams.

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of portfolio assessment for the
a. Students
Advantage
 Students guide their own learning through portfolios.
 Portfolios measure pupils' achievement.
 Portfolios show how students think, analyze, organize, research, and communicate.
 Student portfolios can communicate efforts, progress, and successes.
Disadvantage
 Students do compile their own work outside of class.
 Motivating pupils to take the portfolio seriously is hard.
 Transfer students may struggle with program portfolios.

b. Teachers
Advantage
 Portfolios allow instructors, parents, and students more dependable and dynamic student
data. Encourages faculty learning dialogues, curriculum, pedagogy, and student support
services.
 Clear student information helps teachers plan instructional progress and address
deficiencies.
Disadvantage
 Challenging logistics.
 Motivating pupils to take the portfolio seriously is hard.

3. Enumerate and explain the different kinds of portfolio. Give examples for each.
 Project Portfolios – Project-based. Document each phase and the whole project's
progress.
 Growth Portfolios – Show progress toward learning goals. Record progress. Student
writes growth self-reflection.
 Achievement Portfolios - Do a documentation of student achievement. Best, latest work
sorted by learning aim. Students annotate each sample's learning goal and degree of
proficiency.
 Competence Portfolio – Proof of acceptable or excellent accomplishment. Students must
offer sample problems to demonstrate learning.
 Celebration Portfolios – Students choose their proudest accomplishments.

4. How different is the use of students’ portfolio from the other methods in assessing
learning?
 When compared to more traditional forms of testing, a student's knowledge may be
evaluated more comprehensively through the use of a portfolio. In contrast to other kinds
of assessment method, which evaluates what a student knows, a portfolio evaluation
gauges how well a student can apply and make use of the information that they have
acquired in their classes.

5. Is it possible to commit an error when assessing student portfolio? What are the possible
errors that can be committed by the teacher?
 Yes, When it comes to grading portfolios, teachers make mistakes just like everyone
else. This is true whether the portfolios are for collecting evidence for competency-based
programs such as art. Portfolios can be very different from one student to the next, which
makes it hard to grade or mark them. So it can be hard to agree on how to grade them.
Still, it is possible to make assessment criteria that make marking more reliable. For
example, when presenting "evidence" in a portfolio, there may be criteria like the type,
quality, and quantity of evidence needed for each part of the portfolio.
