Instruction: Closely read the text below.

ASSESSING LEARNING

Assessment is defined as a process that is used to keep track of the learners’ progress in relation
to learning standards including that of the development of 21 st century skills, which is part of the new K-12
education framework. Thus, assessment should be aligned with curriculum standards and on the 21 st
century skills assessment framework.

The process of assessment is anchored to the framework of ZPD of Vygotsky (1978). In the center
of the process is the nature of the learner. Assessment shall recognize the diversity of the learners inside
the classroom, which requires multiple ways of assessment measures of their varying abilities, skills and
potentials.

The enhanced curriculum of the K-12 basic education is standards-based. The assessment
measures shall be anchored on the attainment of these standards and competencies. Assessment is
aimed at helping the learners perform well in relation to these learning standards. There is a recommended
type, component, period, and approach of assessment for each learning standard lifted from DepEd’s
policy guidelines.

Principles of Assement
1. Assessment should be consistent with the curriculum standards.
The teacher should make sure that the assessment measures the attainment of the learning
objectives set at the beginning of the lesson or unit.
2. Formative assessment needs to scaffold the students in the summative assessment.
The results of formative assessment are not graded but it is important to keep documents of these
to study the patterns of the learning demonstrated by the learners to prepare them in taking the summative
assessment.
3. Assessment results must be used by teachers to help the students learn better.
The teacher must seek ways to use assessment to help the students want to learn and feel able to
learn.
4. Assessment is not used to threaten or intimidate the learners.
The main purpose of assessment is to improve learning, not increase anxiety among the learners.
