2. Make a Venn diagram citing the significant difference and commonality of the following
terms:
a. Assessment for Learning
b. Assessment of Learning
c. Assessment as Learning
3. Expound and give specific examples of
a. Validity
b. Reliability
a. Validity is about ensuring a test or assessment measures what it’s supposed to measure.
It’s like using the right tool for the job. If you’re testing student’s reading skills, the
questions should focus on understanding the text, not unrelated topics like grammar or
spelling. It is about the accuracy of an assessment (measuring what it’s intended to
measure).
Example: Imagine giving a reading comprehension test that only asks students to define
difficult words. That wouldn’t be valid if it checks if they understood the story or passage.
A valid test would ask questions like. “What is the text’s main idea?” or “Why did the
character act a certain way?”
b. Reliability is an assessment having a scale that consistently gives you the same weight
reading, even if you step on multiple times. If the students take a test more than once, their
scores should be reliably consistent, assuming their knowledge hasn’t significantly
changed. It is about the consistency of an assessment (producing similar results under
similar conditions).
Example: If you give a math exam the result will produce similar scores for students who
take it in different classrooms, even if the teachers are different. This means that the test is
measuring a consistent understanding of the math concept, not just the students’ ability to
adapt to different teaching styles.

6. Expound the statements “Technology based assessment is better than traditional one, and
therefore, can replace human teachers by AI”
The idea that technology-based assessments are superior to traditional ones and can
therefore replace human teachers with AI is a tempting but ultimately flawed notion. While
technology offers undeniable advantages in education, it’s crucial to recognize that it’s a
tool, not a replacement for human educators. Technology-based assessments can
streamline the assessment process, provide immediate feedback, and offer personalized
learning experiences. However, education is about more than just delivering information
and assessing knowledge. Teachers play a vital role in fostering critical thinking, creativity
and emotional development, providing mentorship and guidance, and building relationship
with students. These are the skills that AI, at least for now, cannot replicate. Instead of
viewing AI as a replacement for teachers, we should consider it a helpful partner that can
enhance the learning experience by automating tasks, providing personalized feedback, and
freeing up teachers’ time for more individualized attention. Ultimately, the human touch
remains essential in education, and technology should be used to support and empower
teachers, not replace them entirely.
