    This document discusses alternative assessment and compares it to traditional assessment. It provides examples of alternative assessment models like emergent, developmental, and authentic assessment. Authentic assessment criteria include tasks that use language creatively, require quality products or performances, and involve peer and self-assessment. Principles of alternative assessment are outlined, such as it focusing on both the process and product, higher-order thinking, and real-world contexts. The document asks readers to develop a matrix comparing traditional and alternative assessment and give an example of applying an alternative assessment principle from their own experience.

    SECTION: BEED III-2

    UNDERSTANDING THE LESSON 1

    A. To check your understanding on the basic concepts and principles in assessing learnings using
    nontraditional or alternative methods. Answer the questions below: 3 points each ( 2 points for
    the relevance, 1 point for the organization)
    TOTAL POINTS: 15 POINTS

    1. What is alternative assessment of learning?


    Alternative assessment is also referred to as performance test or authentic assessments
    because it uses activities that reveal what students can do with language, emphasizing their
    strengths instead of their weaknesses. Alternative assessment is performance based. It can help
    us educators emphasize that the point of language learning is communication for meaningful
    purposes. Some examples are: portfolios, project work, and other activities requiring some
    type of rubric.

    2. How similar or different is traditional assessment from alternative assessment?


    Alternative assessment instruments not only designed and structured differently from
    traditional tests, but are also graded or scored differently because as I said alternative
    assessment is a performance based that can help us teachers or educators emphasize that the
    point of language learning is communication for meaningful purposes not only for linguistic
    development but also their learning process.

    3. Give three models of alternative or non traditional assessment.


    The three models of alternative or non-traditional assessment are Emergent assessment,
    Development assessment and Authentic assessment.

    4. Give three criteria for an assessment or activity to be considered as authentic.


    Authentic assessment must be:

    a) They involve multistage tasks and real problems that require creative use of language
    rather than simple repetition.
    b) They require learners to produce a quality product or performance.
    c) They involve interaction between assessor, peers, and person assessed.

    5. Give and explain three principles in assessing learning using alternative methods..
    1. Assessment is both process and product oriented.

    The Traditional assessment focuses on the product or output only, while the Alternative
    assessment focuses not only on the product or output but also on the allotted effort and the
    process on how the students completed their performance task.
    2. Assessment should focus on higher order cognitive outcomes.

    When doing an assessment the higher order thinking skills must be present, their
    creativity and critical thinking skills must be exercise while doing a task so that the
    product will be unique and authentic.

    3. Assessment should reflect real life or real-world contexts.

    Assessment must be relevant and related on a real-life situations or problems so that


    when the students encounter the same or related situations they can easily do or make a
    solution out of the problem.

    B. To know if you have acquired the needed information about the basic concepts and principles
    in alternative assessment, use the table provided to develop a matrix of the difference between
    traditional assessment and alternative assessment of learning. Everyone will share and discuss in
    the class the matrix they have developed.

    (3 points each a total of 15)


    B. Key differences between traditional assessment and Alternative Assessment
    Area Traditional Assessment Alternative Assessment
    Definition Use of traditional assessment Alternative assessment refers
    strategies or tools to provide to the use of alternative or
    information on student non-traditional assessment
    learning strategies or tools to collect
    information on students
    learning.
    Tools Paper and pencil tests Performance based
    assessment.

    Focus Knowledge Application and Authenticity


    Orientation Outcome oriented Process, product and
    performance oriented

    C. Based on the lessons on the basic concepts and principles in assessing learning using non-
    traditional or alternative methods, select one core principle in assessing learning and explain
    them in relation to your experience in previous or in current teacher in one of your
    courses/subjects
    For example:
    Principle Illustration of Practice
    Assessment should reflect real life or real- In our practicum course, we were asked to
    world contexts. prepare a lesson plan then to execute the plan
    in front of the students with my critic teacher
    around to evaluate my performance. The
    actual planning of the lesson and its execution
    in front of the class and the critic teacher are
    authentic ways of assessing my ability to
    design and deliver instruction rather than
    being assessed through demonstration in front
    of my classmates in the classroom

    (10 POINTS) 6 POINTS –CONTENT IN THE ILLUSTRATION OF PRACTICE


    2 POINTS –ORGANIZATION
    2 POINTS - PRINCIPLES
    Principle Illustration of Practice
    Assessment In our CLB 101 we have given a project to do a community service and we
    should reflect decided to clean and plant vegetables in the garden. The assigned
    real life or real photographer and videographer recorded and captured our performances
    world contexts. and the finish product of our project and documented it to be passed on our
    teacher. The assessment made by our teacher is authentic because it was
    based on a real-life situation.
