3. 1. The assessment of student learning
starts with the institution's vision, mission
and core values. There should be a clear
statement on the kinds of learning that the
institution's values most for this students.
4. Vision
NEUST is a locally responsive and
internationally relevant and
recognized University of Science
and technology
Mission
To develop new knowledge and
technologies and trasnform
human resources into productive
citizenry to bring about
development impact to local and
international communities
6. 2. Assessment works best when the program
has clear statement of objectives aligned with
the Institutional vision, mission and core
values. Such alignment ensures clear, shared
and implementable objectives.
7. 1. Previde advance instruction and professional
training in arts, science and technology, education
and other related fields, undertaken research and
extension services and provide progressive
leadership in these area.
8. 2. Offer graduate and undergraduate and short
term technical courses within its area of
specification and according to its capabilities as the
Board of Regents may deem necessary to carry out
its objectives, particularly in order to meet the
needs of the province and the region.
9. 3. The exciting high school shall be transferred to the jurisdiction
and supervision of the Department of Education. Provided, that the
high school shall be allowed to remain within the campus of the
University until the students shall have completed their high school
education. Provided further, that the University may operate a
reasonably sized laboratory school, if it has a College of Education.
10. 4. Have the general power of cooperation set
forth in the Corporation Law. The
administration of the University and the
exercise of its corporate power shall be
vested exclusively in the Board of Regents.
11. 3. Outcome - Based assessment focuses on the student
activities that will still be relevant after formal schooling
concludes. The approach is to design assessment activities
which are observable and less abstract such as " to determine
the student’s ability to write a paragraph" which is more
observable than " to determine the student’s verbal ability".
12. 4. Assessment requires attention not only to
outcomes but also and equally to the activities and
experiences that lead to the attainment of learning
outcomes.
13. 5. Assessment works best when it continuous,
ongoing and not episodic. Assessment should be
cumulative because improvement is best achieved
through a linked series of activities done over time
in an instructional cycle.
14. 6. Begin assessment by specifying clearly and
exactly what you want to assess. What you want
to assess is/are stated in your learning outcome/
lesson objectives.
15. 7. The intended learning outcome/lesson objective
NOT CONTENT is the basis of the assessment task.
You use content in the development of the assessment tool
and task but it is the attainment of your learning outcome
NOT content that you want to assess. This is Outcome-based
Teaching and Learning.
16. 8. Set your criterion of success or acceptable
standard of success. It is against this established
standard that you will interpret your assessment
results.
17. 9. Make use of varied tools for assessment data-
gathering and multiple sources of assessment data. It is
not pedagogically sound to rely on just one source of data
gathered by only one assessment tool. Consider multiple
intelligences and learning styles. DepED Order No. 73, s. 2012
cites the use of multiple measures as one assessment guideline.
18. 10. Learners must be given feedback about their
performance. Feedback must be specific. "Good work!"
is positive feedback and is welcome but actually is not a very
good feedback since it is not specific. A more specific
better feedback is "You observed rules on subject-verb
agreement and variety of sentences. Three of your commas
were misplaced."
19. 11. Assessment should be on real-world
application and not on out of-context drills.
12. Emphasize on the assessment of higher-
order thinking.
13. Provide opportunities for self-assessment
