From the given reading material, we can notably see that observation is the primary mean of assessing
student’s affective domain, it can be:
o teacher observing the student (through anecdotal records and personal interview)
o student observing another student (through peer appraisal)
o student’s self-observation (through self-report inventory)

In one paragraph comprising only five sentences, what is the relevance of students’ honesty and
truthfulness, in the validity of the data gathered from these tools?

Student’s honesty and truthfulness of these tools is really important because these tools will help both
the learners and teachers to know whether the learning outcomes are achieved or the learning process
is effective. These assessment will showcase students development in learning. So to know if the
learning is effectiveand that the data gathered are valid the honesty and truthfulness of the students is
needed. If the students are not honest about the data in these tool then it is considered as invalid
because the data gathered is not true. Truthfulness and honesty are really needed and important in
validity of the gathering of data in these tools because these will help the teachers to know if they are
effectively teaching the learners and which part will they improve for the students to also improve in
their learning.
