Assessment OF Learning
5.2 (Summative Assessment)
SPARK Your Interest
Episode # 5.1 dwelt on Assessment for Learning (formative assessment) and Assessment as Learning (self-
assessment). These refer to assessment that teachers do while still teaching and students assessing their own learning.
Episode # 13 will be focused on Assessment of Learning. When teachers have done everything, they can to help learners
attain the intended learning outcome/s, teachers subject their students to assessment for grading purposes. This is
referred to as assessment of learning which is also known as summative assessment.
Episode # 5.2 will be focused on 1) assessment of learning in the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains
with the use of traditional and non-traditional assessment tasks and tools, 2) assessment of learning outcomes in the
different levels of cognitive taxonomy; 3) construction of assessment items with content validity; 4) Table of
Specifications; 5) Portfolio, 6) Scoring Rubrics, 6) The K to 12 Grading System and 7) R eporting Students’
Performance.

Activity 5.2.c Observing the Use of Non-Traditional Assessment Tools and Scoring Rubrics
Resource Teacher: ___ _______ ____ ___ _______ ____ School Affiliated: _____ __ _______ ____ ____
Subject Area: ____ _______ ____ ___ _______ ____ Date: ________ ____ ___ _______ ____ ____
1. There are learning outcomes that cannot be assessed by traditional assessment tools.
2. Authentic/non-traditional /alternative assessment tools measure learning outcomes like performance and product.
3. These performance task and product are assessed by the use of scoring rubric.
4. A rubric is a coherent set of criteria for student’s work that includes descriptions of levels of performance quality
on the criteria. (Brookhart, 2013)
5. The main purpose of rubrics is to assess performances and products.
6. There are two types of rubrics - analytic and holistic. Analytic rubrics describe work on each criterion separately
while a holistic rubric assesses a student work as a whole.
7. For diagnostic purposes, the analytic rubric is more appropriate.
8. For a holistic view of a product or performance, the holistic rubric will do.
9. A good scoring rubric contains the criteria against which the product or performance is rated, the rating scale and a
description of the levels of performance.
