Assessment for Learning, Assessment as
Learning, Assessment of Learning. How they are
Practiced?
My learning episode overview
This episode introduces assessment FOR learning, assessment AS learning and assessment OF learning.
Prepositions for, as and of mean a lot. They make a big difference in assessment. Assessment FOR learning, assessment AS learning and assessment OF leaning have different purposes. You learned them in your subjects on Assessment. In this episode, you will observe how they are applied in the teaching-learning process.
My intended learning outcomes
At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:
distinguish among the 3 forms of assessment and
draw concrete examples of these form of assessment.
My performance criteria
I will be rated along the following:a. quality of my observations and documentation, b. completeness and depth of my analysis,
c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections, d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and
e. time of submission of my portfolio.
My learning essentials
The preposition “for” in assessment FOR learning implies that
assessment is done to improve and ensure learning. This is referred to as FORmative assessment, assessment is given while the teacher is in the process of student formation (learning). It ensures that learning is going on while teacher is in the process of teaching.
Teacher does not lose anything if as she/he teaches he/she checks for
understanding now and then. This is to ensure that before he/she
proceeds further or comes near the end of te chapter, unit or course or grading period, the students understood the lesson.
It will be tragic and a waste of time if teacher just proceeds with his/her teaching presuming that students understood the lesson only to discover at the end of the unit or grading period that students after all did not understand the lesson. So much time has already been wasted.
Besides, lack of understanding of the lesson must have been
compounded because the “ABCs” of the lesson weren’t mastered and the teacher already proceeded to “XYZ”. Too late to discover that at the end of a unit or a grading period the students did not learn what was expected of them.
Formative assessment also includes the pretest and the posttest that a teacher gives to ensure learning.
Why the pretest? It is to find out where the students are or determine their entry knowledge or skills so teacher knows how to adjust instruction.
Why the posttest? It is to find out if the intended learning outcome has been attained after the teaching-learning process. If not all students have attained it, the teacher have to apply intervention or a remediation. Why do these have to take place? To ensure learning, thus the term
assessment FOR learning.
In Assessment FOR Learning, teachers use assessment results to inform or adjust their teaching.
Assessment OF Learning is usually given at the end of a unit, grading period or term like a semester it is meant to assess learning for grading purposes, thus the term Assessment OF Learning.
Assessment AS Learning is associated with self-assessment. As the term implies, assessment by itself is already a form of learning for the students.
As students assess their own work (e.g. a paragraph) and/or with their peers with the use of scoring rubric, they learn on their own what a good paragraph is. At the same time, as they are engaged in self-assessment, they learn about themselves as learners (e.g. paragraph writers) and become aware of how they learn. In short in assessment AS learning, student set their targets, actively monitor and evaluate their own learning in relation to their set target. As a consequence, they become

Figure 1. Various Approaches to Assessment
My Learning Activities
I will observe two classes, record my observations with the use of an Observation Sheet.
OBSERVATION SHEET # 1:1
Indicators of Assessment FOR,OF and AS Learning
Assessment FOR
Write observed teacher activities that manifest assessment FOR
learning.
(Assessment while the teacher teaches.
Conduct of pretest and posttest are included).
Write observed teacher and student activities that manifest
assessment AS learning.
(Self-assessment)
Write observed teacher activities that manifest assessment OF learning. (Assessment at the end of teaching)
My Analysis
1. Did you observe assessment practices for the three (3) forms of assessment? Explain your answer.
2. Are the results of assessment OF learning affected by the
observance/implementation of assessment FOR learning? Explain your answer.
3. Based on your observations, to what extent is Assessment AS Learning (self-assessment) practiced compared to Assessment FOR (formative) and OF Learning (summative)?
4. Which phrase refers to assessment FOR learning? Assessment OF learning? Assessment AS learning?
DepEd Order No. 8, s. 2015 states: “Assessment is a process that is used to keep track of learners’ progress in relation to learning
standards…, to promote self-reflection and personal accountability among students about their own learning and to provide bases for the profiling of the student performance on the learning competencies and the standards of the curriculum.”
My Reflections
Write your reflections on the following:1. As a student, did you like assessment? Do students like assessment? Why or why not?
2. What can you do to eliminate students’ fear of assessment? Can frequent formative assessment (Formative assessment) reduce if not eliminate fear of assessment?
3. Do you like the idea and practice of self-assessment (assessment AS learning)? Why or why not?
Integrating Theory and Practice
1. Teacher Emma gave a True-False pretest on social justice. Based on the pretest results, she taught her class social justice by correcting whatever wrong concepts the students have affirmed and expounded on their correct concepts.

My Learning Essentials
The following are the principles that should guide you in the conduct of assessment.
1.Begin by specifying clearly and exactly what do you want to assess. What you want to asses is/are stated in your learning outcomes/lesson objectives.
2.The intended learning outcome/lesson objective NOT CONTENT is the basis of the assessment task. You use content in the development of the assessment tool and task but it is the attainment of your learning outcome NOT content that you want to assess. This is Outcome-based Teaching and Learning.
3.Set your criterion of success or acceptable standard of success. It is against this established standard that you will interpret your assessment results.
Example: is a score 7 out of 10 (the highest possible score) acceptable or considered success?
4.Make use of varied tools for assessment data-gathering and multiple source of assessment data. It is not pedagogically sound to rely on just one source of data gathered by only one assessment tool. Consider multiple intelligences and learning styles. DepEd Order No, s. 2015 cites the use of multiple ways of measuring students’ varying abilities and learning potentials.
5.Learners must be given feedback about their performance. Feedback must be specific. “Good work”! is positive feedback and is welcome but actually is not a very good feedback since it is not specific. A more
specific better feedback is “You observed rules on subject-verb agreement and variety of sentences. Three of your commas were misplaced.”
My Map
6.Assessment should be on real-world application and not on out of four context drills.
7.Emphasize on the assessment of higher-order thinking.
8. Provide opportunities for self-assessment.
Step 1. Read the Learning Essentials given above.
Step 2. Observe at least three (3) classes with a learning partner.
I will choose one class from each of the three groups.
Group 1- Language/Science/Math Group 2- Physical Education, ICT, TLE
Step 3. Discuss my observations/answers to the questions with my partner.
Step 7. Come-up with my Portfolio. Step 6. Answer the LET-like questionsStep 5. Reflect on my observation. Step 4. Write down my answers to the questions.

My Analysis
1. Which principles of assessment were observed to have been practiced?
My Reflections
We assess what we value and value is what we assess. What should I do to make assessment worthwhile?
Integrating Theory and Practice
1. Emphasize on self-assessment. Teacher Lyn applies this principle by ________.
a. Making her students check their own papers.
b. Motivating her students to set their personal learning goals and track their progress against that goal.
c. Preparing her students for higher-order thinking questions. d. Requiring them scoring rubric as project.
2. Assessment should be on real-world application and not on out-of-context drills. To apply this principle, what should Teacher Nancy do?
a. Assess students’ English oral communication skills in a graduation program simulation where each student has a speaking assignment.
b. Give a 20-point quiz asking students to determine whether the sound of “a” is long or short.
c. Give students a matching type of test on vocabulary.
d. Give a 10-item quiz on adding similar fractions which is the weakness of students.
3. If you emphasize on assessing higher-order thinking skills, which should you do?
a. Avoid paper-pencil test.
b. Give students a problem to solve. c. Give oral examination.
d. Do less formative assessment.
4. On which should a teacher base his/her assessment? a. Learning outcome
b. Learning content
c. Developmental stage of Learners d. Learning resources
5. In outcome-based education or outcome-based teaching-learning, the assessment task should match with the _____________.
a. Learning resources b. References
c. Learning outcome d. Content
6. “Very good. You are doing very well Johann!”, Teacher Jona says. Teacher was referring to Johann’s world problem-solving skill. Is this accordance with giving specific feedback?
a. Yes. b. No.
c. Very much, the feedback is clear enough. d. No, it is exaggerated.
7. Teacher Annie explains to her class: “Each of you is expected to spell 10 words out of ten words correctly. This is a mastery test”. Is Teacher Annie’s behavior in keeping with the principle to set acceptable standards of success?
a. No, the standard she set is too high.
b. No, she is not setting the standards. She is just explaining the meaning of a mastery test.
c. Yes, it is. The standard is clear.
d. Yes, she sees to it that every student agrees.
8. Teacher Jocelyn considers the multiple-choice type of test the best among the written type of test, so for assessment of learning she uses only multiple choice type of test. It this in accordance with the principle of assessment?
a. Yes, well-formulated multiple choice tests measures HOTS. b. Yes, for as long as the multiple-choice tests measures low
and high level of thinking skills. c. No, she has only one source of data.
d. No, she should make use of varied tools for assessment data-gathering.
9. A professor does not give quiz at all. The students’ grades are based only on the summative assessment results. Does he violate an assessment principle?
a. No, that is academic freedom.
b. No, he assesses learning and gives grade anyway. c. Yes, assessment data to be reliable should come from
multiple sources.
d. Yes, he does not consider multiple intelligences and learning styles.

TASKS
My Learning Episode Overview
There are different assessment methods, assessment tools and
assessment tasks to assess several domains of learning-cognitive, affective and psychomotor.
No single assessment method/tool/task can assess all forms of learning. With Gardner’s learner’s multiple intelligences, learning when assessed can be demonstrated in nine (9) different ways and therefore can be assessed in nine (9) different ways, too. Teacher, therefore, should make use of varied assessment tools and tasks. In fact, one principle of assessment is to make use of varied methods and tools.
In this Episode, you will see which methods, tools and tasks are used for learners with varied multiple intelligences and in different domains of
learning.
My Intended Learning Outcomes
At the end of this Episode, I must be able to:
identify different assessment methods, assessment tools and
assessment tasks and
select the appropriate assessment method/tool/task for different
domains of learning and for the 9 intelligences.
My Performance Criteria

in
DIFFERENT
LEVELS
My Learning Episode Overview
In the previous Episode you met Learning in different domains. In this Episode you will deal with the different levels which these three domains are processed, taught, learned. You will also observe and reflect on how your Resource Teacher assess learning in theses domains in different in levels. Theirs is the challenge to formulate appropriate exercise questions and tasks are aligned to the level of the learning outcomes.
My Intended Learning Outcomes
At the end of this Episode, I will be able to:
classify the level of learning outcomes based on Bloom’s, Kendall’s and
Marzano’s taxonomy.
determine if the assessment tools/tasks are aligned to the level of the
learning outcomes.
My Performance Criteria
I will be rated along the following:
a. quality of my observations and documentation, b. completeness and depth of my analysis,
c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections, d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and
e. time of submission of my portfolio.

The outcomes of the K to 12 Curriculum are spelled out in terms of standards and competencies.
The content standards state what the learners should and be able to do after the teaching-learning process. The performance standards are what the learners are able to do with what they know.
DepEd Order No. 8 s, 2015 states;
“Performance standard answer the following questions: 1. What learners can know?
2. How well must learners do their work?
3. How well do learners use their learning or understanding in different situations?
4. How do learners apply their learning or understanding in real-life contexts?
5. What tools and measures should learners use to demonstrate what
they know?
These standards are made more specific in the competencies. Competencies are the specific knowledge, skills, values and attitudes that learners are supposed to demonstrate after a teaching-learning process
The K to 12 Curriculum is said to prepare the learner for the 21st
century. The K to 12 learners is expected to acquire the 21st Century
skills – life and career skills. Learning and innovation skills. Learning and innovation skills include critical thinking, communication skills,
collaboration skills, and creativity.
To prepare the learner for the 21st century, then the teaching and
learning process in the K to 12 curriculum ought to go beyond simple recall and comprehension. It should reach the level of applying,
analyzing, evaluating and synthesizing which are basic to development of 21st Century skills.
