Tools for Measurement and Evaluation

In undertaking the different types of evaluation, the teacher tends to use test
scores as basis most of the time. This should not be the case, because the
teacher can use various tools or instruments to gather the information she
needs. Among these are:

1. Actual observation of student behaviour

2. Examination of work samples
3. Rating scales
4. Check list
5. Themes
6. Notebooks
7. Recitations
8. Homework; and
9. tests

Observation and Work samples

Actual observation and examination of work samples are the two bases for
evaluating the student’s performance. The teacher should note, however, that
observation has limitations. The students may lose spontaneity in their
behaviour when they become aware that they are being watched.

Rating Scales

Rating scales are used especially for evaluating skills, procedures, and
personal social behaviour. They can also facilitate evaluation of the student
projects and other work.

Checklist

A checklist is different from a rating scale. It only indicates the presence or

absence of characteristics.

Themes, Notebooks, Recitations, Reports, and Homework

The written work of the students like themes, notebooks, recitations, etc. can
provide evidences of students’ progress. Hence, all written work should be
checked.

Tests. Teachers in a effort to measure and eventually evaluate student

learning in the classroom use a variety of tests.

General Principles in Test Construction

Gronlund (1982 as cited by Arends, 1994) provides the basic principles that
should guide the teachers as they design an assessment system and create
their own tests.

1. Measure all instructional objectives

Teachers should construct tests to measure clearly the learning

objectives they have communicated to students. The test should be in
harmony with the teacher’s instructional objectives.

 2. Cover all learning tasks

A good test does not focus entirely on one type of objective such as
factual recall; rather, it should measure a representative sample of the
teacher’s learning objectives.

3. Use appropriate test items.

Some types of test items, such as matching or fill in the blanks, are
better for measuring recall of specific information; others, such as essay
items, are better for tapping higher-level thinking processes and skills.

4. Make tests valid and reliable.

A test is said to be reliable when it produces dependable, consistent

scores for persons who take it more than once over a period of time.

5. Use test to improve learning.

This final principle is meant to remind the teachers that although tests
may be used primarily to diagnose or assess the student achievement,
they can also be a learning experience for the students.

Uses of Grades

1. To determine who of the students are to be promoted to the next year

and who are to be retained another year or eliminated from a class.

2. To motivate the students to work hard.

3. To guide the planning of the student’s current school work.

4. To guide plans for future education.

5. To provide records for the school.

6. To provide reports for student progress for the parents and the student
himself.
