MY TARGET

           

At the end of this activity, you will be skillful in designing product-oriented performance assessment.

Your Task

           

Design a product-oriented performance assessment by going through the process through the following steps:

1.       Visit a class and identify product-oriented activities.

2.       Choose one product-oriented activity and study the process.

3.       Design a performance assessment plan for the product-oriented activity you have chosen.

4.       Develop a portfolio of your assessment plan.

5.       Reflect on your experience.

OBSERVATION NOTES

Name of the School Observed: Isabela National School School Address:Claravall St., San Vicente, Ilagan City Date Visited: March 12, 2015 Grade/Year Level: Grade 7- Tanguile Subject Area: Mathematics

Describe in bullets the product-oriented activity you observe.       The teacher asked her students to find their partner to do the task.       The teacher explains the task which is the tessellation.       Then give the materials needed in making the task.       Then she said when it will be passed.       And give the criteria in judging the task.

MY PLAN

Learning Objectives:             For the end of grading period students should able to enhance their creativity and measuring skill tied to the objective.

General Product-oriented performance Task:           Given the procedures, students will create a tessellation.

Target Skills:          Grade 7- Tanguile

Learning Activities (Specific tasks): The tessellation created by the students must:       The combination of the color used was appropriate.       Contain at least two or more geometric shapes.       Has no gaps and overlaps       Measured perfectly.       Clean and presentable.       Covered in plastic cover.       Generate output as a result of group effort.

Assessment Tasks: The making of the product will be evaluated through the following criteria: CRITERIA OUTSTANDING 4 SATISFACTORY 3 DEVELOPING 2 BEGINNING 1 RATING Explanation of the proposal (20%) Explanations and presentation of the lay-out is detailed and clear. Explanations and presentations of lay-out is clear Explanations and presentations of lay-out is a little difficult to understand but includes critical components. Explanations and presentations of lay-out is difficult to understand and is missing several components. Accuracy of computation (30%) The computations done are accurate and show understanding of the concept of special products and factoring The computations done are accurate and show a wise use of the concepts of special products and factoring. The computations done areerrorneous and show some use of the concept of special products and factoring. The computations done are errorneous and do not show wise use of the concept of special products and factoring. Utilization of resources (20%) Resources are efficiently utilized with less than 10% excess. Resources are fully utilized with less than 10-25% excess. Resources are utiluzed but a lot of excess. Resources are not utilized properly. Appropriateness of the model (30%) The models are well-crafted and useful for understanding the design proposal. They showcase the desired product and are artistically done. The models are well-craffted and useful for understanding the design proposal. They showcase the desired product. The models are less useful in understanding and design proposal. Themodels re not useful in understanding the design proposal. Overall rating

NOTES ON MY PRODUCT-ORIENTED ASSESSMENT PLAN

Name of the School Observed: Isabela National School School Address:Claravall St., San Vicente, Ilagan City Date Visited: March 12, 2015 Grade/Year Level: Grade 7- Tanguile Subject Area: Mathematics

What are the best features of my product-oriented performance assessment design? The best feature of this assessment is it is align in the learning objectives and can able to enhance the ability and skills of the students. In task given by the teacher, she want to enhance the creativity and measuring skills of her students

What specific conditions are necessary for a successful use of my product-oriented performance assessment design?       The students can able to find a partner wherein he ir she’s comfortable.       The students must follow the instruction in this task.       The teacher must inform her students in the scoring scheme.       The students must enhance thier skills.       The students must met the set competencies.       The students must pass the product on time.

What basic points should the user of this design consider?       The students as the prime source of the task must involve in making the given task.       The set learning objectives must align and achivable.       The teacher must give the shoring scheme for the learners’ be aware.       The task must enhance the ability, capability and skills of each learne

Analysis

1.       Do you think your originally design product-oriented performance assessment can appropriately assess the teacher’s learning objective? Why? Why not?

Yes, because I consult it to my resource teacher ang give me some pieces of advice in creating an assessment plan. Yhe learning objective that i made is appropriate in the lesson of the class that i’m observing

2.       Why do teachers need to give attention to the students’ product-oriented tasks? Why do they need to assess them?

The teacher must give attention to the student’s product-oriented assessment because if not, the learning objectives and competencies might commit error in evaluating it. They must assess them because the students might not create a task given. The teacher must guide the students in the task even it is the product will assess alone is because teacher is a second parent and a parent guide her child to do what is right.

3.       In what conditions can the product-oriented performance assessment be need more appropriately?

In Math subject, the product-oriented  assessment can use properly trough giving a task which make them enhance their skills like creativity, measuring skill, etc. Like in this assessment plan, the teacher can able to give a task that which she gave an opportunity to the learners to enhance their creativity and measuring skill.

Reflections

Write your reflection of thoughts, feelings, personal learning strategies, insights or new understanding from your experience in using authentic assessment. Then share your reflection with your FS teacher and classmates. Also draw some insights from your classmates’ sharing.

After answering all the questions in this field study I realized that as a future teacher we should be more observant and give more attention to our pupils/students because all of them have a different characteristics and capabilities that we should enhance through the use of different methods, strategies and assessment tools. Also, after answering this field study I understand how a teacher should be in dealing his/her pupils. And through this I have learned many things that I can use when I am already in the field of teaching. That in giving assessment is a task that we need to think and examine carefully and we should based it on the learners and the learning objectives for it to be successfully done.

After answering this field study 5, episode 5 I realized how important to make an assessmant plan and create an appropriate criteria in judging a task and as a future educator it will be set as my guide when i’m in field of teaching. i understand how must a teacher deal with his or her students. I had learned how much importand assessment methods, tools and strategies in learning environment. And in terms of making an assessment plan, the learning objectives must allign in the subject matter and enhance the skills of the students.
