A TOS allows teachers to construct tests focusing on key areas and weighting importance. It provides evidence of content validity and coverage of objectives. Components of a TOS include learning outcomes, topics covered, instruction time, and test question types aligned to objectives. Creating a TOS helps teachers identify question types needed and improve student learning by driving it with course goals.

    be used to help teachers frame the
    decision making process of test
    construction and improve the validity
    of teachers’ evaluations based tests
    constructed for classroom use.
    What is the purpose of making TOS?

    The purpose of a Table of


    Specification is to identify the
    achievement domains being measured
    and to ensure that a fair and
    representative sample of questions
    appear on the test.
    How do you make a TOS in college?

    Upon a planning a test, you have to


    consider the following:
    1. Identify the test objectives.
    2. Decide on the stage of objective test to
    be presented.
    3. Prepare a table of specification (TOS)
    4. Construct the draft items.
    5. Try out and validation. It must cover
    Bloom’s Taxonomy of objectives in order
    for it.
    Why do teachers create TOS?
    A Table of Specifications allows the teacher
    to construct a test which focuses on the key
    areas and weights those different areas
    based on their importance. A Table of
    Specifications provides the teacher with
    evidence that a test has content validity, that
    it covers what should be covered.
    Why is it important to construct TOS?

    The TOS can help teachers map the


    amount of class time spent on each
    objective with the cognitive level at each
    objective was taught thereby helping
    teachers to identify the types of items
    they need to include on their tests.

    Table of Specifications are designed


    based on:
    1. Course learning
    outcomes/objectives
    2. Topics covered in class
    3. Amount of time spent on those
    topics.

    4. Methods of instruction.
    How to create a Table of Specifications
    (TOS)
    1. Determine the coverage of your exam.
     The first rule in making exams and
    therefore in making a document called
    table of specification is to make sure the
    coverage of your exam is something you
    have satisfactorily taught in in class.
     Select the topics that you wish to test in
    the exam.
     It is possible that you will not be able to
    cover all these topics as it might create a
    test that is too long and will not be realistic
    for your students in the given time.
    Select only the most important topics.
    2. Determine the testing objectives for
    each topic area.
     You will need to be familiar with
    bloom’s taxonomy of thinking skills.
    3. Determine the duration of each content
    area.
     Write down how long you spent teaching
    a particular topic. This is important
    because it will determine how many
    points you should devote for each topic.
    The longer time you spent on teaching a
    material, then the more questions should
    be devoted for that area.
    4. Determine the Test Types for each
    objective.
    It’stime to determine the test types that
    will accomplish your testing objectives.
    For example, knowledge questions can
    be accomplished easily through multiple
    choice questions or matching type
    exams.
    Ifyou want to test evaluation or
    synthesis of a topic, you will want to
    create exam type questions or perhaps
    you will ask the students to create
    diagrams and explain their diagrams in
    their analysis.
    The test type should reflect your testing
    objective.
    5. Polish your terms of specification.
     Make sure that you have covered in your
    terms of specification the important
    topics that you wish to test.
    The number of items for your test should be
    sufficient for the time allotted for the test.
    You should seek your academic coordinator
    and have them comment on your table of
    specification. They will be able to give
    feedback on how you can improve or modify
    it.
    After their approval, it’s time to put into
    an action your blueprint by creating your
    exam.
    FORMULA:

    Desired Total
    x number of
    items

    = number of items per topic


    Percentage

    X 100%
