Field Study
EPISODE 5
BUILD ME UP
|
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.

Describe in bullets the product-oriented activity
you observe.
To make a schematic diagram of series and parallel
connection and
·
Students are formed into five
(5) group having 7 members each.
·
Students are tasks to make
their own schematic diagram of series and parallel connection and give their
differences.
·
Each group must assign a
leader to present their output.
·
Students are given 30 minutes
to do and discuss the given activity.
·
The output (schematic diagram
of series and parallel) should be put on a manila paper before presenting it in
front.

What are the best features of my product-oriented
performance assessment design?
The best feature of my product-oriented
performance assessment design is that it measures or quantifies the amount of
learning/insights that the students obtained after the discussion. With that,
the students will be able to apply it to real- life setting / on the actual field
of work.
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
What specific conditions are necessary for a successful
use of my product-oriented performance assessment design?
Learning targets should be clearly
stated and it should be at the right level of difficulty to motivate the
students. There should be a balance with the different types of targets (Cognitive,Affective,Psychomotor)
and that the Instructional goals should also be communicated to the students.
The tasks direction/instructions should be clear for the students to have
clear idea what to do. Criteria should also be considered since this is a
product- based performance to evaluate students’ performance. These are the
conditions that are necessary for me to have a successful use of product-oriented
performance assessment design.

|
What basic points should the user of this design
consider?
The
user of this design must consider: (1)the purpose of the assessment (2) students’ needs(3) Set instructional goals and this
should be communicated to the student (4) What skills will be develop (5)Knowing the strength and weaknesses
of the learners (6)The materials to be used should be
well- planned for the success of this design.

Analysis
1. Do
you think your originally design product-oriented performance assessment can appropriately
assess the teacher’s learning objective? Why? Why not?
Yes, the
original design of product-oriented performance assessment can appropriately assess
the teacher’s learning objective because the new design was based on the teacher’s
learning objective which is to develop their skills in designing a series and
parallel circuit connection.
2. Why
do teachers need to give attention to the students’ product-oriented tasks? Why
do they need to assess them?
Teachers
need to give attention to the students’ product-oriented tasks for the teacher
to measures or quantifies the amount of
learning/insights that the students obtained after the discussion.
3. In
what conditions can the product-oriented performance assessment be need more appropriately?
Product-oriented
assessment can be need more appropriately if psychomotor domain is given more
emphasis like looking if they can produce something base on the lesson. (objective-matching,
skills and the interest of the learners) are the conditions that must be given
emphasis. If these are given priority then product-oriented performance
assessment will be used more appropriately.
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.
Students differ from each other; they have
their own strengths and weaknesses in terms of how they learn. Regarding the traditional assessment,
answering objective test questions does not allow for much variability in how
student demonstrate the knowledge and skill they have acquired. In authentic,
it gives students any choice in how they believe they can best demonstrate what
they have learned or simply students are given more freedom on how they will
apply what they have learned.
As what I have
learned from this experience, the main concern of the teacher is not the high
score that his/her students can get but
rather, the main focus is the students on how they will going to apply the knowledge they
acquired in real- word setting. That the learning target should not only focus
on one domain but the three (3) domains of learning should be equally balance. They
should not only know the facts/knowledge that are being imparted to them the
most important thing is that they know significance of what they have learning
and how they can able to use it in everyday living.
I know that in the
future these learnings that I have reaped will surely help on how to best
educate my learners in the future.
