First, we learned that in this module, the very core of the assessment of learning was defined: the test and assessment. We all know that the purpose of test is to gather information about the changes of the student as he/she were studying. But in this test, each process was specified to be explicable for both students and teachers. These aspects of assessment are assessment itself, measurement, evaluation, test and testing. Assessment refers to the gathering, describing or qualifying of information about the students’ performance while measurement is the process of obtaining a numerical description of the degree to which individual possesses particular characteristics. On the other hand, evaluation is the process of examining the performance of student while test is just the instrument to gather the information on the student whereas is the method to obtain it.
Types of Measurement
There are two ways of interpreting the student performance with a respect on the field which it is being compared. These are the norm-referenced test and the criterion-referenced test. Norm-referenced test is a test designed to measure the performance of student which is being compared to its fellow examinees and the score is usually expresses in percentile or in stanine form while criterion-referenced test is a test designed to measure the performance of the student with respect to some particular criterion or standard. This means that each individual is compared with a predetermined set of standard for acceptable achievement.
Types of Assessment
There are four types of assessment in terms of their function role in relation to classroom instruction. These are the placement assessment, diagnostic assessment, formative assessment and summative assessment. Placement assessment is concerned with the entry performance of the student. It aims to determine the prerequisite skills and the best mode of learning. Diagnostic assessment is a type of assessment in given before instruction. It aims to identify the strengths and weaknesses of students. Formative assessment is a type of assessment used to monitor the progress of the students during or after instruction while formative test is a type of assessment that is usually given at the end of the course or unit to determine if the instructional objectives have been met and it is also used to for assigning grades.

In this module, terms such as the learning targets, domains and many more are defined. This module focuses on the learning target to which it is defined as the statement of student performance that includes both a description of what students should know or able to do at the end of a unit of instruction and criteria for judging the level of performances demonstrated. Learning targets are composed of the content and the criteria. I have learned, together with my classmates, that content is what the students should know and able to do while criteria are dimensions of students’ performance used for judging attainment. Furthermore, we've also learned the different types of learning targets and those were the knowledge learning target, reasoning learning target, skill learning target, and the affective/ dispositional learning target.
Related also to this module was the role of instructional objectives, which is defined as the description of what is eventually taking place at the classroom level. We should be aware about the roles of the instructional objectives because it will help not only the teachers but also the students in clarifying the intent of the lesson and to make it easier to measure student achievement.

And for the last part and is the most important topic under this module was discussing the learning outcomes and the three major domains which are the cognitive domain, affective domain, and the psychomotor domain based on Bloom's taxonomy. These three domains have huge roles in the processing of student learning and outcomes.
Cognitive domain- relates to the mental skills of the student and it includes objectives that deal with the recall of organization of knowledge and the development of intellectual abilities. Under the cognitive domain are the categories that follow; KNOWLEDGE, COMPREHENSION, APPLICATION, ANALYSIS, SYNTHESIS, EVALUATION.
Affective domain- is concerned with the changes in attitude, interests and values, and the development of appreciation and adjustment. Under the affective domain are the categories that follow; RECEIVING PHENOMENA, RESPONDING TO PHENOMENA, VALUING, ORGANIZATION, INTERNALIZING VALUES.

In this module, we learned test as a systematic procedure which measure ones behavior, skills or intelligence. These tests are conducted with purposes. For the school administrators, the result of these tests are utilized and being interpreted in order to know whether the instructions are effective and fruitful and if the students really learned. It helps in decision making, on what steps to make to improve more the quality of learning. So as with the other uses of the test/s, the Supervisors who are relying to the result of the tests to know which areas of learning that needs attention and improvement. The Teachers who are using tests to evaluate their students, and to measure how effective their instructions in teaching are. And lastly, for the Parents to know how well their children doing in school.
This test has different categories, depending to the purpose or on what to measure or evaluate. Test is categorized into nine. Some of these are the Personality test which measures emotional and social adjustment, dominance and submission, value orientation, disposition, emotional stability and many more. The Intelligence test which measure the mental ability of an individual in processing information. The Trade test which is design to measure an individual’s skill or competence in an occupation or vocation. Other categories are Socio-metric Test, Formative Test, Diagnostic Test, Summative Test, Achievement Test and Aptitude Test
These test can be classified whether it is Standardized test, a test prepared by an expert or specialist, or Unstandardized test which prepared by teachers for classroom use.
As to the mode of interpreting results, tests can either be Norm-referenced or Criterion-referenced. Norm-referenced test is a test that evaluates student’s performance by comparing it to other students’ performance. The example for this is per grading period in high school where students are being ranked according to the level of their performance. While Criterion-referenced test is a test that measures students’ performance against a pre-established level of performance. Best example for this is the UPCAT- UP’s Entrance Exam.

GENERAL STEPS IN PREPARATION OF TESTS
In order to make a classroom tests, there are Steps on how to construct these tests. First is the Identification of instructional objectives and learning outcomes. Second, Listing of the topics to be covered by the Test. Third, Preparation of a Table of Specification (TOS). Fourth, the selection of the appropriate types of tests. Fifth, Writing of test Items. Sixth, sequencing of the items. Seventh, writing the directions or instructions. And last, the preparation of the answer sheet and scoring key.
In Preparing and assembling a test more effectively, there are also ways on how to do it. First, Provide general directions for the test. Second, arrange the items systematically. Third, Place the most difficult questions near the end of the test so that students have time to answer more questions. Fourth, Provide ample margins. Fifth, Number the items consecutively. Sixth, before administering the test, prepare answer keys and scoring procedures. And lastly, make sure all copies of the test are legible and free of typographical or grammatical errors.

KEYS TO EFFECTIVE TESTING
Testing is used to gather information needed in evaluation purposes. It also refers to the administration, scoring and interpretation to draw out information about a performance.
Test administration has something to do with the physical and psychological setting or condition where students will take the test. The environment is one of the factors that affect the performance of a student. So it must be conducive and well ventilated for the students to perform their best.

Test scoring happens after the test was taken to determine a result, usually expressed numerically. It is usually done by competent and honest persons and the scoring must only be based from the performance of the test takers to avoid bias.
The test interpretation refers to the giving of meaning to the result whether it is pass or fail.

In this module, we learned about TESTS, tests like Multiple Choice Test, True or False Test, Matching Type Test, Completion and Cloze Test, Essay Test and Other Assessment Tools and Techniques.
This tests are conducted and made with reasons and purposes for us students to learn, even though it is not the same in a way on how to do it and give to students but it is still a way on how to rate or how to know how far we have learned. It helps us students to know how to do some of this especially to the students that are discussed and learned on how to make this kind of tests. This tests are just a way of preparing us for the future.
In this module, there are seven types of tests, the first one is the Multiple Choice Test that are made and asked to select the best answer out of the choices from the list. It helps students to analyze and think about what will really be the correct answer. Next is the True or False Test, it is also called a bibary-choice test that are utilized to assess a student's abilty to recognizethe accuracy of a declarative statement. The third one is the Matching Type Test, in this type of test, the examinee associates an item in one column with a choice in the second column, in that case, they will choose from the second column of what will be the pair or the answer for the first column. Fourth is theCompletion Test, it is an item that requires the students to answer a question to finish an incomplete statement by filling in a blank with the correct word or phrase. Fifth is the Cloze Test, a test that measures student's comprehension abilities by giving them a short text, with blanks where some of the words should be and asking them to fill in the blanks. And the last type of test is the Essay Test, it a type of assessment that is used to comment on students' progress, the quality of their thinking, the depth of their understanding and the difficulties they may be having.
This tests are given to any levels of year or students. It is given for them to know what really their students have learned.

The other Assessment Tools and Techniques
This is a geared in providing practice and general feedback that will improve students' learning. And in this one, there are three ways to assess the understanding of the students.
1. Questionnaire- a research instrument consisting of aseries of questions for the purpose of gathering information from respondents. It is a way in which educational resources might be usefully directed to improve student learning.
2. Rating Scale- used in recording results of observation. It has three types: numerical, graphic and checklist scale. They are given to determine what really a student should be and what is really the rate of the student in learning.
3. Sociogram- is used to provide additional information regarding a student and on how he/she interacts with peers. It is a valuable tool for determining how student is viewed by his/her classmates. This one is some kind of a test about peers, a test for friendship and viewing about yourself to others.
Those are the tests that are involve in this module, and it is important because without this, we'll never know what is really our rate is or what is really the level of our learning in learning the lessons.

Module 5 is about characteristics of a good test. After the discussion, I learned about the importance of validity in a test. In lesson 1, we discuss about what I validity, by the way, what is validity? Validity is probably the single most important characteristic of a test, it is the degree in which a test measures what it seeks to measure. Test validity, or validation of test, explicitly means validating the use of a test in a specific context. I learned also the important things to remember about validity, like determining with reference to the particular use for which the test is being considered. I also know now the different kinds of validity; the Content Validity which is the degree to which test items match some objective criterion. The Criterion – Related Validity which is to check the performance of your operationalization against some criterion, there are also two types of Criterion – Related Validity; the Concurrent Validity and the Predictive Validity, and their importance. Then the Construct Validity which is the degree to which a test measures an attribute or quality it is supposed to measure.
Also, I learned about the reliability of the test. We learned about the importance of reliability of a test. Reliability of a test is the numerically expressed as a coefficient of correlation. I learned that a test to be reliable it should be valid, because it produces the same result if taken repeatedly. We also discuss the different factors that affect the reliability of a test such as adequacy that refers to the proper sampling of the test content. There are other 4 factors that we need to remember when constructing a test for us to construct a good test that clearly discriminates the students who mastered the lessons and those who don’t. in this module, I also learned how to improve the reliability of a test, such as, increasing the number of test items, heterogeneity of the student group and many more. Also the objectivity of a test. Objectivity of a test represents the agreement of two or more competent judges and scorers. This module is explained carefully, and now, as a future educator, I know how to construct a test that will help me improve the students performance and to give more focus on the students who needs improvement.

Item analysis? This means computations and MATH! Yeah, that was my first reaction when we were already in this module because I'm not good in math and I partly hate the thought of it. Well, anyway, I didn't think that learning item analysis would be this easy. I'm blessed that I easily picked up the lessons.
In test item analysis, there are procedures that will be needed to be done. after following the procedure, you need to solve for the Index of Difficulty and the Index of Discrimination. Difficulty Index is the measure of the percentage of incorrect responses determined by dividing the number of students who got the item wrong by the number who tried the item while Discrimination Index is a value which indicates the ability of an item to separate high-achieving students. This two indexes will help to determine the number of students who got the high scores and who got the low scores. Other computations are the computation of the P value under the Index of Difficulty and the computation of the D value under the Index of Discrimination. We also encountered interpreting test scores which is related to understanding percentile score and raw score. It confused me a bit but at least I tried to understand it.

I’ve did learned a lot from this module. First is that how descriptive statistics differ with inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics is type of statistics in which it is used to describe the basic features of the data in a study. They provide simple summaries about the sample and the measures. Together with simple graphics analysis, they form the basis of virtually every quantitative analysis of data while inferential statistics, you are trying to reach conclusions that extend beyond the immediate data alone. For instance, we use inferential statistics to try to infer from the sample data what the population might think. With descriptive statistics you are simply describing what is or what the data shows. With inferential statistics, you are trying to reach conclusions that extend beyond the immediate data alone. I’ve also learned how the methods of central tendency – the mean, median and mode- are used to gather the information needed for the acceleration of the student. Mean is the value in a given aggregate which would obtain if all the values were equal. Median is the value of the middle point of the array (not midpoint of range), such that half the item are above and half below it while mode is is the most frequent value in the distribution; it is the point of greatest density.

In this module, i learned how to use rubrics and i learned how to use the portfolios and the performance based assessment.
Because in this module we learned about the rubrics, portfolios, and the performance based assessment.
Rubrics, it is an assessment tool for communicating expectations of quality. It is also a set of criteria and standards typically linked to learning objectives and it is derived from the Latin word "rubrica"which means "red ochre or red chalk", and originates in Medieval illuminated manuscripts from the 13thy century or earlier.
Types of Rubrics: Analytic, Holistic, General and Task Specific Rubrics. They are the types of rubrics that perform some tasks to know what kind of rubrics you'll gonna use and do.
There are also guidelines in creating rubrics. The first one is the survey models which review examples of good and not-so-good wok. Second is the define and list criteria, it is from the discussions of the models. Third is, pack and unpack criteria which you likely end up with a long list of criteria. Fourth is the articulate levels of quality, it describe the best and the worst levels of quality. Fifth is, practice on models, it is using the agreed criteria and the levels of quality. Sixth,revise the draft, to show the draft to your students and ask for their comments. And lastly is theuse teacher assessment which use the same rubric students used to assess their work yourself.
We also have the components of rubrics: the performance element, scale, criteria, standard, descriptors and indicators.
Portfolios - it is a term used to describe a collection of a student's work collective over time, so that teachers, school administrators and parents can review a student's progression in a given content area.
The purpose of portfolios is to allow the teachers to witness students' achievements in ways that standardized or state testing often cannot.
Portfolios has its two type, the progress portfolio and the showcase portfolio.
I also knew about the uses of portfolio.
1. to illustrate a students' typical work in various school subjects.
2. to show students' best work in a subject area.
3. provide structure for self-reflection about areas of teaching needing improvement.
4. demonstrate how teaching has evolved over a period of time.
5. demonstrate how effective has been through the collection of students evaluations.
6. to develop student self-confidence.
7. to promote self-conference and control of learners.
8. provides opportunity for teaching-student dialogue.
This are some of the topics that i have learned in module 8. On how to use rubrics and portfolios, it'll really help us and it will be used by us future teacher for our future career.

Module nine is all about Grading and Teaching Practices. In this module, we learned about the nature of grade marks and its four functions. According to the reporter, grades are the teachers’ judgment on the performance of students based on the criteria. Also, we learned about the different purposes of grades/marks, they are the Administration, guidance, and motivation. Then the five types of grades, the advantages and disadvantages of grades/mark, common grading-related problems, averaging scores to determine a grade, use of zeroes, and lastly, the lowering grades because of behavioral infractions. We also learned about the meaning and framework of performance based assessment and the basic steps to plan and execute effective performance-based assessment. We also learned how to create performance rubrics and its uses. Also, other practices that helps the teachers in grading the students’ performance fairly.
This chapter helps us become a good teacher who is objective in terms of grading our students. In grading a student’s performance, teachers should avoid favoritism. We learned to grade our students not by our own judgment but based on the students performance.
