Knowledge, Process, Understanding, Performance (KPUP)- Levels of Learning

Outcomes LEYSA
Knowledge, Process, Understanding, Performance reflect different learning
outcomes that are arranged in hierarchy of complexity. Knowledge being the basic level
of learning outcomes and Performance being the advanced level of learning outcomes.
Let us look at how these learning outcomes are calibrated. Later on we will find
examples on how each level is assessed.

Assessment Tool for Each Level of Learning Outcomes

Knowledge, Process, Understanding (KPU) Learning Outcomes

Knowledge, process, and understanding are learning outcomes. Students who
can show that they have gained knowledge, can apply such knowledge and have
achieved several meaning on the particular knowledge have achieved the learning
outcomes.

Types of Tests to Measure Knowledge, Process and Understanding

1. Objective Test – Test that require only one and one correct answer. It is difficult
to construct but easy to check.

1.1. Pencil and Paper Test – as the name suggests, the test is written on
paper and requires a pencil to write. However, with the modern time, a
pencil-and-paper test can also be translated to an electronic version,
which makes the test “ paperless. “

1.0.1 Simple Recall – This is the most common tool to measure knowledge.
There are varieties of Simple Recall Test, to include.
 Fill in the Blanks

 Enumeration

 Identification

 Simple Recall
