SCORING ACTIVITIES UNDER COMPETENCE BASED CURRICULUM

2024
Scoring of the learner activities in both CA and SA is based on indicators such as

features or characteristics which display acquisition of a skill or competence.
These will cover all the domains of learning particularly Cognitive and
psychomotor and learners’ abilities.
The indicators for the achievement of the abilities will be pretest by UNEB such as
under integrated projects continuous Assessment Framework (CAF) like A
designed software tool where information regarding particular activities will be fed
every term.
NOTE:
The software will be opened as soon as the term opens and will close as soon as
the term ends. In case one enters the information online, changes will be allowed in
case errors are made thus, there is need to do everything on time and very
carefully.

➢ What did I test? (Construct, element of construct, competencies/skills and

abilities)
➢ Why did I test it? (What skills or abilities are you evaluating from the
learner).
➢ How should I asses it? (Determine learners’ competency on suggested
competencies and skills)
➢ What are the key elements of what I tested? (Competencies, steps,
processes, ideas, conclusions, judgements, reasoning, procedures among
others.)
➢ What did I want the assessee to do? (Clarify what the task was
instigating/enticing the learner to exhibit in terms of: skills, competencies,
abilities, reasoning procedural application/evaluation, knowledge
application, logical reasoning/chronological reasoning.
