Assessment and Evaluation Flashcards
A method used to measure the level of achievement or performance.
Measurement
The process of gathering, describing, or quantifying information about performance.
Assessment
Is making judgment based on assessment results whether to revise the lesson or develop a new one.
Evaluation
An instrument or systematic procedure for measuring a sample of behavior by posing a set of questions in a careful manner.
Test
A specific stimulus to which a person responds overtly; this response can be scored or evaluated (for example, classified, graded on a scale, or counted).
Item
Pertains to the form, plan, structure, arrangement, and layout of test items as well as to related considerations such as time limits.
Format
People involved in creating
and developing method of assessment. The purpose is usually for research, publication or refinement of existing tests.
Test Developer
Refers to the wide array of professionals who relay on psychological assessment and tools for various purposes.
Test User
Refers to the person whom the assessment tools were administered to.
Test Taker
It is established by comparing the
scores obtained from two successive measurements of the same individuals and calculating a correlation between the two sets of scores.
Test Retest
A type of carryover effect wherein the scores on the second test administration are higher than they were on the first.
Practice Effect
Occurs when the first testing session influences the results of the second session and this can affect the test- retest reliability of a psychological measure.
Carry Over Effect
It refers to the degree to which the measurement procedure measures the variable that it claims to measure (accuracy).
Validity Defined
It is not done by statistical analysis but by the inspection of items.
Content Validity
Inspected by a group of experts/evaluators.
Item Inspection
Is the simplest and least scientific form of validity and it is demonstrated when the face value or superficial appearance of a measurement measures what it is supposed to measure.
Face Validity
Look if the group of experts/evaluators are consistent with their judgment about each items.
Inter-Judge Consistency
These are partially related and partially independent.
Reliability and Validity
The teacher/test developer must be familiarized with the content of the test he/she is planning.
Pre-Survey
Learning competency: Write a descriptive paragraph.
Assessment Criteria
One on one conversation with another person and asking questions to gather information, opinion, and stories.
Interviews
Sustained exploration of an unfamiliar situation and is open ended.
Investigations
It provides information about the students’ progress in school.
Feedback
Evaluation administers at the conclusion of a unit of instruction to comprehensively assess student learning and the effectiveness of an instructional method or program.
Summative Assessment
A process of viewing and studying visual media such as movies, documentaries and movie clips as related to the lesson.
Viewing Analysis
Learners think of a response to a question individually first. They form pairs to discuss their answers. Then together they agree on the ideas they will share in class.
Think-Pair-Share
Speaking and acting activity where the learners pretend to be something or someone to simulate an event.
Role Playing
Experience the output they produce.
Aesthetic Project

Graphics for organizing and representing knowledge of students. Branches out into specific ideas.
Concept Map
Extended pieces of writing designed to tell a story, present information, or give an opinion.
Essays
It is a continuous and several assessments done during the instructional process for the purpose of improving teaching or learning.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR EFFECTIVE GRADING 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
- Discuss the grading procedure to students
- Grades will be purely based on achievement

- Take precautions to prevent cheating
- Return all test and other assessment results
- Properly weight the various types of achievement
- Tardiness, weak effort, misbehavior should not affect the grades
- Be judicious/fair and avoid bias
