 LARGE SCALE ASSESSMENT
• Is a traditionally defined as the measuring of student progress

BENEFITS OF USING LARGE- SCALE
ASSESSMENT DATA
 LARGE SCALE ASSESSMENT IN EDUCATION
• Published from 2008 to 2012 as the “IERI Monograph Series”.
• Is a joint publication the International Association for the Educational Achievement

• Are test or other data collection procedures administered to large numbers of students
at the same time. These assessments often are used to measure student achievement for
educational accountability, where either the system or individuals in the system are
held responsible for student performance. Among the students taking large-scale
assessments are those with special educational needs.
 THE ROLE OF LARGE SCALE ASSESSMENT

• To serve as models of effective assessment practices for teachers and students. That is, to teach how to test.

• School accountability: To gauge the success of schools and school systems in order to hold educators
accountable for student attainment of educational results.

• Student Accountability: To measure the achievement of individual students to better inform instruction for

promotion or graduation.
 LARGE SCALE ASSESSMENTS FOR USE IN THE
PHILIPPINES
• The K-12 Basic Education Program led by the Department of Education in
the Philippines' elementary and secondary education standards. The
National Achievement Test (NAT), produced by the National Educational
Testing and Research Center (NETRC), currently provides nationwide
information on student’ achievement at Grade 3,6 and 10. This review
considered International Large-Scale Assessments (ILSA), such as the
Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), Trends in
Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), the Progress in International
Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), and others, for use in the Philippines.
