Episode 5.1: Design, Selection, Organization, and Utilization of Assessment Strategies

Assessment is as old as education itself (Mitchell, 1992). Every day, teachers assess their
students to ensure the quality of instruction. This lesson will guide you in understanding the proper
procedures in designing, organizing, and using appropriate assessment strategies.

Objectives:
1. Explain the meaning of the term assessment
2. Compare diagnostic, formative, and summative assessment strategies
3. Observe how teachers use different assessment strategies inside the class

Education Theory
As defined in DepEd Order No. 8, series of 2015, assessment is a continuous process of
identifying, gathering, organizing, and interpreting quantitative and qualitative information about
what learners know and can do. Indeed, the objective and subjective information accumulated from
various assessments is valuable.

In designing and utilizing an assessment strategy, the teacher must know the purpose of
assessment.

There are three (3) ways to assess students’ learning according to purpose (edudemic.com):

1. Diagnostic assessment is given at the beginning of the school year or at the beginning of a
new unit of study. This assessment strategy attempts to quantify what students already know
about a topic.

2. Formative assessment is given throughout the learning process. This assessment strategy
seeks to determine how students are progressing through a certain learning goal.

3. Summative assessment – is given at the end of the year or a unit. This assessment strategy
assesses the students’ mastery of a topic after instruction.

Through the use of various assessment strategies in our learning episodes, we can ensure that
we hone not only the cognitive domain but also the affective and psychomotor domains, which will
result in the holistic learning and development of the students.
