At the end of Chapter 3 students are expected to: match learning outcomes with the
appropriate assessment method.
Introduction:
Assessment methods and tools should be parallel to the learning targets or outcomes to
provide students with opportunities that are rich in breadth and depth and promote deep
understanding. Not all assessment methods are applicable to every type of learning outcome.
Teachers have to be skillful in the selection of assessment methods.

1. Selected- response format- students select from a given set of options to answer a
question or problem. The items are easy to grade. Examples are: multiple choice,
alternate response (true/false), matching type.
2. Constructed-response format- students create or produce their own answers to a
question, problem or task. Examples are: performance tasks, essay items or oral
questioning sentence completion, labeling a diagram, answering a mathematics problem
by showing a solution. Performance assessment requires a student to perform a task
which could be product based or skills oriented. Examples are: written reports, projects,
poems, portfolio, audio-visual materials, reflection papers, journals, debate, recital, role
play

watching students respond to toral questions and behavior during class activities
enables the teacher to know if learning is taking place in the classroom.
4. Student self-assessment- It is a process where students are given the chance to reflect
and rate their own work and judge how well they have performed. Self-monitoring
techniques such as activity checklists, diaries, self-report inventions. Self-report
inventions are questionnaires or surveys that students fill out to reveal their attitudes and
beliefs about themselves and others. Self-assessment enhance student achievement,
improve self-efficacy, promotes mastery goal orientation and meaningful learning.
