Lesson 2: Criteria in Choosing Appropriate Assessment Tools
Answer the following questions.
1. Enumerate and discuss the different assessment methods and tools utilized by
your teacher in elementary and high school.
Answer:
Way back in my elementary days, most of my teachers use flash cards of
alphabet, animals, shapes and numbers then ask us one by one to identify and read out
loud each flash card being shown to us to assess our knowledge about the said topic. In
high school, teachers usually gives us multiple choice pre-test before discussing the
topic to assess us if we have an idea or what we already know about the topic that will
be discuss. Then after the discussion, the teachers will give us multiple choice post-test
to assess if we have gain knowledge about the topic that was discussed.
2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of these assessment methods and
tools? Cite concrete example.
Answer:
For me, the advantage of using flash cards is it triggers the memorization ability
of the students. If the teachers keep on showing and repeating the flash cards to the
students, it will trigger their memorization ability and can identify each flash cards even
if they were shuffled. While the disadvantage of it is when you use flashcards, you're
basically feeding the students brains more and more information. Next one is giving
multiple choice test to students, this will make it easier for the teacher to assess if the
students really understand and gain knowledge from the given topic and it can be used
to evaluate individual students. The disadvantage of it is that multiple choice tests are
difficult to use to evaluate the skills of every students.

1. What is the role of ICT in assessing student learning? Cite specific examples.
Answer:
ICT provides a technique of assessing student learning that is methodical,
reasonably reliable, and time-saving. It has many benefits and it can provide ways to
improve and enhance the process of assessment. In testing, ICT can be used to
generate tests, score them, analyze the results, and assist teachers in measuring
learning outcomes. By using ICT, teachers can benefit by keeping and documenting
information on how students are learning new material, as well as taking over some of
the work of assessing and sending feedback to students so that teachers can focus on
other aspects of learning aids.

2. As a future teacher, how will you assess your future students?
As a future educator, I will assess my future students by asking them to make a
short summaries about the lesson that has been discussed to them. This is for me to
know if every students are really listening, understands and absorbs the lesson that has
been discussed to them. Since I will be an English teacher in the future, I choose
summary making as an assessment to practice the students in writing and expressing
their insights and ideas in English.
3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using ICT in assessment? How
about conventional assessment methods?
Answer: (ICT in Assessment)
ICT has many advantages for both teachers and students. For teachers and
pupils, digital generation of questions and digital rendering of answers has made life
easier. Since technology has a wide range of questions style, it can help the teacher to
make different types of questions in a short period of time. This gives teachers more
alternatives when it comes to creating evaluation questions. By using ICT teachers can
also make different sets of exams with shuffled questions that he/she can easily send to
individual students. Digitalized assessments can provide quick feedback and speed up
the process and teachers can also choose to record the scores of every students
automatically. Aside from the advantages, it also has some disadvantages like
plagiarism. There are times that students turn in plagiarize and copy pasted works to
get good grades which is wrong. Another one is using ICT as an assessment tool can
bring many distractions to students like Social Medias and online games.

Answer: (Conventional Assessment Methods)

When we say conventional assessment these are the assessment approaches
that are more traditional which assess what skills pupils can perform successfully. They
are usually knowledge-based rather than practical or performance-based. Traditional
forms of examinations, such as multiple-choice, short answer essays, or constructed
replies, as well as standardized assessments given to all pupils, are some of them.
Some advantages of these assessment are they are easy and it takes less time to
prepare them and at the same time they can be easily administer. They are very easy to
score and the teachers can easily and quickly assess if the students gain knowledge
and learning from the topic that was discussed. And lastly these assessments are
objective, reliable and valid. Aside from the given advantages this type of assessment
also has some disadvantages like students have few opportunities for demonstrating
what they've learned because these assessment are only limited to pencil and paper
test. Another one is the given time to complete the test is fixed and limited which give
the students pressure to complete the test.

portfolios. It enables them to record and present their learning in a variety
of formats. Videos, drawings, written notes, links, and a variety of other

Students take notes to capture their thoughts and then enhance them with
images, audio files, links, and attachments. Evernote has a number of
organizing features that help users organize their work so that it can be
readily searched and accessible on a variety of devices.
3. What evidence is there that ePortfolios are beneficial to student learning?
Answer:
E-Portfolios are good learning tools because they encourage students' own
knowledge production, make previously unseen components of the learning process
visible, and give students agency, which increases motivation. They also promote
learning by giving students the opportunity to critically evaluate their work, reflect on it,
and establish connections between various topic areas, assignments, and other
