This lesson will mainly focus on “Why” and “How” to Communicate Authentic
Assessments Result. Communication is giving, receiving, or exchanging ideas, information,
signals, or messages through appropriate media, enabling individuals or to express emotions.
While Authentic Assessment is a form of assessment in which students are asked to perform
real-world tasks that demonstrate meaningful application of essential knowledge and skills.
Communication is not just communication itself. It requires a wide factor to consider
before we totally achieve a good communication process. An effective communication within
the four (4) walls in a classroom is a vital part in shaping a peaceful nation. Transparency to
one another will lead to a better understanding and achieving the main goal which is to
produce quality and globally competitive future educators.
Communicate Authentic Assessments Result is very essential in providing quality
education. It is the way we can do to maintain the good relationship between teacher,
students, school heads, parents and to other people within the community. There is always
room for improvement so as a teacher, you should be transparent about the grades of your
students, you should know how to build a good relationship with them and in order to
successfully achieve it, you should know how to communicate properly.

Portfolio gives students the opportunity to direct their own learning
Portfolios can be used to determine students’ level of achievement.
Portfolio gives students the opportunity to direct their own learning.
Portfolios can be used to determine students’ level of achievement.
Portfolio can be used to understand how students think, reason, organize, investigate, and
communicate.
Portfolios can be used to communicate student efforts, progress toward accomplishing
learning goals, and accomplishments
Portfolios can be used to evaluate and improve curriculum and instruction.
CHARACTERISTICS
Johnson (2002) There should be a systematic and organize collection of the student’s work.
The gathering of pieces of work should make a sample of the student works and not an
exhaustive collection. The basic education portfolio is collected at the end of the quarter for
the teacher’s assessment and evaluation
ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF A PORTFOLIO
Cover letter
"About the author" And "What my portfolio shows about my progress as a learner"
(written at the end but put at the beginning).
Table of contents with numbered pages.
Entries
Both core (item students have to include) and optional (items of student's choice.
Students can choose to include "Best" Pieces of work, but also a piece of work that gave
trouble or one that was less successful and gives reasons why.
Dates on all entries
To facilitate proof of growth over time. Pages.
Drafts of aural/oral and written products and revised versions
Reflections
Can appear at different stages in the learning process (for formative and/or summative
purposes) and at the lower levels can be written in the mother tongue or by students who find
it difficult to express themselves in english.
STUDENTS CAN CHOOSE TO REFLECT UPON SOME OR ALL OF THE
FOLLOWING:
What did I learn from it?
What did I do well?
Why (based on the agreed teacherstudent assessment criteria) did I choose this item?
What do I want to improve in the item?
How do I feel about my performance?
What were the problem areas?

WHAT A PORTFOLIO INCLUDES?
It includes different types of work such as " writing samples, journal entries, videotapes,
art, teacher comments, posters, interviews, poetry, test results, problem solutions,
recordings of foreign language communication, self-assessments and any other expression
of the student that the teacher believes demonstrate the student' s skills and
accomplishments " . (Kingore, 2008)
Artifacts are documents or products that are produced as a result of academic classroom
work. Examples are student papers and homework
Reproductions are documentation of a student’s work outside the classroom. Examples are
special projects like Capstone and a student' s description of an interview with the
Chairman of the Education Committee in the Municipal Council
Attestations are the teacher ' s or other responsible persons’ documentation to attest to the
student’s progress. A teacher, for example, may write evaluative notes about students’ oral
defense of a research paper and place them in the student’s portfolio
Productions are the documents that. the student himself/herself prepares. These
productions include
1) Goal Statements
2) Reflections And
3) Captions
b) ePORTFOLIOS
E-PORTFOLIO AS AN ASSESSMENT TOOL AND AS A COMMUNICATION
MEDIUM
E-PORTFOLIO
An academic e-portfolio can also capture other aspects of a student's life, such as
experiences, extracurricular activities, and more. In other words, an e-portfolio documents and
makes visible student learning. But a good e-portfolio should be more than just a collection of
6
products. A good eportfolio is both a product (a digital collection of artifacts) and a process (of
reflecting on those artifacts and what they represent).
LEARNING EPORTFOLIO
This type of ePortfolio is both student and faculty directed. Students utilize their ePortfolio
for a variety of reflective purposes
ASSESSMENT EPORTFOLIO
This type of eportfolio allows teachers and students to share the responsibility of setting
goals and evaluating progress while also enabling measurement of multiple dimensions of
student progress by including a wide variety of data

TEACHING
PERSONAL
BEST PRACTICES IN USING EPORTFOLIO
When ePortfolios have broader institutional uptake, students will be encouraged in all of
their courses to use their ePortfolio, and to reflect on and make connections between all of
their courses and academic experiences.
Explain the benefits of eportfolios to students
Establish clear expectations
Provide numerous examples of successful eportfolios created by students
Scaffold student learning
Walk the talk
Tie eportfolios to assessment make it social
ASSESSMENT OF EPORTFOLIOS
Because ePortfolios require a significant investment of time and energy from students, it is
important that they be assessed carefully, and that the assessment contributes in a substantial way
to a student’s final grade in a course.

“Processed through absolute grading as it is the only form of assigning grades that is
compatible with the mastery of teaching and learning strategies” Mckeachie, W. J.
(1986)
b) GRADING SYSTEMS
is a method used by teachers to assess students’ educational performance based on
certain criteria.
TYPES OF GRADING SYSTEMS
I. Letter Grades
students’ performances are summarized by means of letters
assigning range numerical grade value always depend in set of criteria and decision of the
school
A+,A 93-100
A- 90-92
B+ 87-89
B 83-86
B- 80-82
C+ 77-80
C 73-76
C- 70-72
D+ 67-69
D 63-66
D- 60-62
F Below 60
9
Practice of calculating semester, end-of-term, or end-of-year course grades by taking the
sum of all numerical grades awarded in the course and then dividing the sum by the total
number of grades.
80 + 90 + 85 = 255
o Cumulative
The grade of a student in a grading period equals his currents grading period which is assumed to
have the cumulative effects of the previous grading system.
Steps:
1. Obtain your semester GPAs and credit hours
GPA for each semester
10
Number of credit hours for each
Grades 1 - 12
Written Work (WW)
Performance Tasks (PT)
Quarterly Assessment (QA)
How is learner progress recorded & computed?
1. For Kindergarten
11
Checklists and anecdotal records are used instead of numerical grades.
Checklists - to indicate whether or not the child can demonstrate knowledge &/or perform
the tasks expected of K learners.
Anecdotal records or narrative reports - to describe learners’ behaviour, attitude, & effort in
school work.
Teachers keep a portfolio for each learner which contains learners’ output such as writing
samples, activity sheets & artwork.
2. For Grades 1 to 12
In a grading period, there is one Quarterly Assessment but there should be instances for
students to produce Written Work and to demonstrate what they know & can do through
Performance Tasks.
There is no required number of Written Work & Performance Tasks, but these must be
spread out over the quarter & used to assess learners’ skills after each unit has been taught.
Step 2: The sum for each component is converted to the Percentage Score
To compute the Percentage Score(PS), divide the raw score by the highest possible
score then multiply the quotient by 100%.
Step 3: Percentage Scores are then converted to Weighted Scores to show the importance of
each component in promoting learning in the different subjects.
To do this, the Percentage Score is multiplied by the weight of the component found in
Table 4 for Grades 1 to 10 and Table 5 for Senior High School. The product is known as
the Weighted Score (WS)
12
Step 4: The sum of the
Weighted Scores in
each
component is the Initial
Grade. This Initial
Grade will be
transmuted using the
given
transmutation table to
get the Quarterly
Grade (QG).

III. Verbal Descriptors
14
IV. Checklists
V. Narrative Reports
Provides constructive feedback of student's performance using narrative format. The
strengths, weaknesses, and things need for improvement.
c) REPORTING TO PARENTS
I. Report Cards
To show the students progress in the classroom, and display the grade that
the student has earned in each subject.
II. Parent-Teacher Conference
A short meeting between you and your child's teacher to talk about your
child's academic performance and experience at school.
Students are dismissed three hours prior to the regular dismissal time.
III. DOCUMENTATION
These are the proofs that Group 4 finished the given task to them, which is about
discussing the Unit 4 - Communicating Authentic Assessments Results.
15
Ma’am Elijah Valdez talks about the effective communication.
Then the discussion was followed by Ma’am Christine Joy Martinez who have
discussed as to how we should communicate and give some tips and strategies to have
good communication.
Ma’am Grace Ann Aquino then tackled about Grading and Reporting. She also taught
us and gives us idea on how we can compute the grades of students in the future.
For the last presenter, Ma’am Danica Gacutan continued the other part of the Grading
System, namely the Descriptors, Checklists, and Narrative Report. She also included the
discussion of Parent - Teacher Conference and Report Card.
16
During the discussions, the reporters made sure that there’s still interaction between the
speaker and the listeners. The following screenshots were taken during the discussion while
other classmates of us were being asked to answer certain questions to serves as their
participation. This was taken during the 2nd day of the report.
1. As a teacher what role do facial expressions, gestures, and tone of voice, play in
communicating the parents of your students? Site a specific example based on your
experience.
2. What are the parts of portfolio? What is the importance of a portfolio in
Communicating Authentic Results?
3. Why do we assign grades to students?
