Educator Assessment Strategies in Learning

The document contains three scenarios involving assessment issues for a teacher to consider. For the first scenario, the teacher administered a test on prominent 20th century painters and sculptors after teaching about elements and principles of art, so revisions would be recommended to better align the assessment with what was taught. For the second scenario, using a mathematics portfolio of writings about geometry as an alternative assessment is appropriate given the learning objectives involve calculations and applications of concepts. The third scenario involves choosing between two tests, and Test B, which has established reliability even without known validity, is recommended over Test A which only has known validity since reliability is also an important psychometric property. The document also includes a table of specifications for a science test and questions to analyze its

Scenario 2:
In a geometry class, the learners have to calculate perimeters and areas of plane figures like
triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. The teacher decided to use alternative assessment rather than
the test. Students came up with mathematics portfoios containing their writings about geometry .

What would you tell the teacher?

Scenario 3:
There are two available assessment instruments to measure English skills on grammar and
vocabulary. Test A has high validity but no information concerning its reliability . Test B was
tested to have a high reliability index but no information about its validity. Which one would you
recommend? Explain briefly .
