solution may be standardized by adding salt until a
fresh egg will float in it. This assumes that all eggs
have almost the same:
A. Volume B. Weight C. Shape D. Density
Students must take what they know and draw
certain conclusions, however, in drawing those
conclusions they must be conscious of any
assumption they are making for if they are untrue
they would invalidate the conclusions.

Analysis of Relationship
Analysis of relationship is next sub category of
analysis.
It deals with questions, such as:
What is the relationship between hypothesis and
conclusions?
Can the student detect logical fallacies in the
reasoning leading to a conclusion?
Can he tell the difference between cause and
effect relationship and consequences?
6. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Example: Physics
Objective: To ascertain the student’s abilities to detect
cause and effect relationship.
A piston is pushed down in a cylinder of air. After each
item number on the answer sheet, blacken the space.
A. If the statement is true and reason given is true
B. If the statement is true and reason given is false
C. If the statement itself is false
1. The gas heats up because the average kinetic energy of
the molecules has been increased.
2. The number of molecules is increased because the gas
heats up

Levels of Analysis Skill
Analysis of Organizational Principles
It is usually written in essay form and is
characteristic of the essay question.
These are asked in advanced placement
courses or college classes.
Essay must include an analysis of the sense
in which physics and chemistry “explains”
biology.
8. Evaluation of Analysis Objectives
Analysis presupposes that the individual not only
can comprehend what has been stated in
document but also can separate himself from the
message to view it in terms of how it does what it
does.
Analysis requires the students to see the underlying
ideas employed in a document.
Analysis is required in such situations where a
deeper understanding is required before decisions
are reached, problems are attacked, or significant
evaluations are made.

9. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
The writing of analysis objectives is very important.
All objectives must involve some ability to
recognize, identify, classify, distinguish, or relate
particular qualities or characteristics of a work.
The following objectives can be used to write
objectives for assessment of analysis skill:
Compare • Contrast • Differentiate • Classify
• Distinguish
In terms of student’s behavior, the ability to analyze
might include the behaviors from A to F.
10. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Points to consider in developing test items for Analysis skills
Some of the key points are as below:
1. The problem situation, document, or material to be analyzed must be
new, unfamiliar, or in some way different from that used in
instruction.
2. The new situation, document, material should be available to the
student as he makes the analysis, and he should be able to refer to it
while he/she attempts to answer the questions or solve the problems
posed by the evaluator.
3. One or more of the behaviors listed in the subsection on ability to
analyze should be sampled by the test problem.
4. The adequacy of particular analysis should be determined by a
comparison with that made by competent persons in the field or by a
judgment of the adequacy with which evidence is used to infer
particular unstated qualities or characteristics.
11. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Test problems for Analysis of Behavior (A)
The student can classify words, phrases, and
statements in a document using given analytic
criteria (A)
It is the simplest type of analysis.
This type of analysis is first step in overall
analysis
The questions attempt to determine whether or
not the student recognizes the function, purpose,
or use made of the particular elements in the
document.
12. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Example
A biological situation is listed below. In each situation, a
specific phenomenon is underlined {italicized}.after each
situation is a numbered list of students, each of which may
or may not be directly related to the specific phenomenon.
Directions: for each numbered statement blacken the answer
space, in accordance with the series of choices given below,
which best characterizes the statement.
Blacken answer space
A. If the statement helps to explain the cause of the phenomenon
B. If it merely describes the phenomenon
C. If it describes a consequence of the phenomenon
D. If the statement does not directly relate to the phenomenon
13. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Test Problems for Analysis Behavior (B)
The students can infer particular qualities or character
not directly from clues available in the document (B)
Students recognize a variety of clues in the document
and to use these as a basis of his inferences.
This behavior emphasizes on specific qualities,
characteristics or elements.
For an evaluation of this behavior, it is necessary for
the student to have the document or material available
to refer to as frequently as he needs.
In some situations for the student well enough
remembering of document in memory may be required.
14. Example
The student has the paper available for reference
during the examination
1. In Leibnitz’ discussion of “quality of motion”. His
first assumption establishes:
A. A definition of the term” force” acquired by a body in
falling from height A
B. A relationship between falling bodies and bodies
projected upward against gravity
C. That the momentum acquired by a body falling from
height h is sufficient to carry it back to height h
D. The equivalence of weight and motive force.

2. His second assumption establishes
A. A definition of the term “force”
B. A relationship between height of fall and velocity acquired
C. A relationship between height of fall and weight of body
D. The special case arising in consideration of machines
3. In discussing the separation of particles, Lavoisier does not
assert or assume that
A. Anybody expanded by heating can be contracted by cooling
B. There is a range of attainable temperature below the point at
which bodies remain constant in size despite further cooling
C. The size of the individual particles is unaffected by heat
D. There is a point on the temperature scale below which further
marking are meaningless.
16. Test Problems for Analysis Behavior C
The students can infer from the criteria and
relations of material in a document what
underlying qualities, assumptions, or
conditions must be implicit required, or
necessary (C).
In this behavior the emphasis is on the entire
document or idea, although analysis still
deals with particulars which have bearing on
the document as a whole.

Levels of Analysis Skill
Example
Geologists subscribe to the hypothesis that the earth has
been shrinking. Which of the following is the best
evidence for this hypothesis?
A. The earth is not a perfect sphere
B. The density of the interior of the earth is considerably higher
than that of the surface layers.
C. The force of gravity varies in different parts of the earth.
D. The earth came originally from the sun as heterogeneous
material and has been readjusting to the force of gravity.
E. Mountain ranges consist of series of folds
In this example the student is to determine which type of
evidence supports a particular theoretical statement.
18. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Test Problems for Analysis Behaviors D,E,F
The student can use criteria (such as relevance, causation,
and sequence) to discern a pattern, order, or arrangement
of material in a document (D)
The student can recognize (the organizational principles or
patterns on which the entire document or work is based (E)
The document can infer the particular framework,
purposes’ and point of view on which the document is
based (F)
All three type of behavior require the student to make
particular kinds of analysis in which he is able to discern
the pattern, organizational principle, framework, or point
of view on which an entire work is based.
19. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
Example
1. The falling of mass in the work [a sculpture]results from;
A- The material B- The color
C- The form D- The treatment of surface
2. The sculpture is unified chiefly by;
A- Repetition of parallel planes
B- Color, texture, and repetition of lines and volumes
C- Bilateral symmetry
D- Repetition of identical shapes
These questions are all related to new work of sculpture
presented to the students at the time of the examination.
These two questions attempt to evaluate the student’s ability to
discern particular aspects of the arrangement of material and
form (behavior D).
20. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
3. One principal movement in the sculpture is created by;
A- The parallel turning of front and back planes of the figure
B- A single cylindrical volume running from top to base
C- An unbroken curve encircling the figure
D- A vertical core-line extending from top to base
4. Linear movements felt in this work are;
A- Vertical B- Diagonal C- Horizontal D- All of these
5. The medium affects the work chiefly;
A- By limiting the nature of the design
B- By its color and grain
C- By its structure and hardness
D- By the difficulty of carving it
These test detect student’s recognition of some of the
organizational principles underlying the work (E)
21. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Analysis Skill
7. The work is best described as;
A- Close representation of the natural object
B- Selective representation of the natural object
C- Abstraction based upon geometrical principles
D- Nearly non-objective
This question focuses on the overall framework or quality of the
sculpture (F)
Test Problems for Analysis Behaviors D,E,F
The student can use criteria (such as relevance, causation, and
sequence) to discern a pattern, order, or arrangement of material in
a document (D)
The student can recognize (the organizational principles or patterns
on which the entire document or work is based (E)
The document can infer the particular framework, purposes’ and
point of view on which the document is based (F)
22. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Synthesis implies almost the converse of analysis.
Synthesis involves putting elements together to form a new
pattern.
It provides students an opportunity for originality and
creativity. Three Subcategories of Synthesis Skill are:
Production of Unique Communication
Identification of constituting parts or elements.
Recognition of relationship between different elements.
Identification of organizational principles.
Determining the organizational structure.
Production of a Plan or Proposed Set of Operations
Derivation of a Set of Abstract Relations
23. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Production of Unique Communication
This kind of production involves such abilities as being able
to write sciences fiction, to tell a story of incident well, or to
speak on the spur of the moment.
It could involve secondary school student in a number of
practical activities.
Example: Science
You have read the book entitled……
Take one of the following positions and write a 500 word
essay defending your position.
I agree with the author because …………….
I disagree with the author because…………..
24. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Production of a Plan or Proposed Set of Operations
This type of question can be very challenging to students.
It encourages them to device ways of testing hypotheses.
Teachers can actively involving student in the process of
inquiry. All good teachers try to develop this kind of inquiry
in one way or another.
Example: General Science
Objective: To assess the student’s capacity for original
thinking.
You have learned that the earth is round and know one
method for demonstrating this fact. Can you think of
another plan for demonstrating this phenomenon?
25. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Derivation of a Set of Abstract Relations
This subcategory requires students to analyze a
phenomenon and then formulate a hypothesis to
explain the factors involved.
Synthesis is putting together of elements and parts so
as to form a whole.
This involves the process of working with pieces, parts,
elements, etc., and arranging and combining them in
such a way as to constitute a pattern or structure not
clearly there before.
In synthesis, each student may provide a unique
response to the question or problem posed.
26. Developing Tests for Assessing Different

Evaluation of Synthesis Objectives
Synthesis is putting together of elements and parts so as to
form a whole.
This involves the process of working with pieces, parts,
elements, etc., and arranging and combining them in such a
way as to constitute a pattern or structure not clearly there
before.
In synthesis, each student may provide a unique response
to the question or problem posed, and it is the task of the
evaluator to determine:
a. the merits of the responses in terms of process exhibited
b. the quality of the product
c. Quality of evidence and arguments supporting the synthesis work.
27. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Requirements for developing synthesis problems and tests:
Same 4 conditions of analysis will be applied
1. New situation, problem or task must be different in some way from
those used in instruction. The students may set the task or problem
for himself or at least have considerable freedom in refining it.
2. The student may attack the problem with a variety of references or
other materials available to him as he needs them.
3. The type of product developed may be one of the types listed under
the general category of synthesis or any other which is appropriate
to the particular educational objective being evaluated.
4. The adequacy of final product may be judged in terms of the effect
it has on the reader, observer, or audience; the adequacy with
which it has accomplished the task; or evidence on the adequacy
of the process by which it was developed.
28. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Test Problems for Assessing Synthesis Behavior A
Production of a unique communication
Student is attempting to convey an idea to other.
Student must have in mind the effects to be
achieved, the nature of the audience he is
attempting to influence or affect, the particular
medium or form to be used (written, spoken, painted,
etc), and the ideas, feelings, or experiences to be
communicated.
Students must be given considerable freedom in
defining task for himself or in redefining the problem.
29. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Example : Essay (suggested time: 2.30 hours)
Directions: Read the following comment on selections I and II of the
reading materials and answer the question based on them.
Comment: “Each of the three statements – of a leading American
policy planner, of Britain’s (1951) Foreign Secretary, and of one of the
Soviet Union’s official newspapers claims to prescribe indispensable
conditions for the achievement of peace. But no one of the statements
really deals with the crucial factors which underline the conflict between
East and West. No one of them indicates the fundamental policies, both
domestic and foreign, which are necessary to achieve peace.”
Question: Do you agree or disagree with this comment? In defending
your answer, make clear your views of the indispensable conditions,
both within and between nations, of lasting peace, and describe and
defend a major line of policy which the United States might now
employ.
30. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Test Problems for Assessing Synthesis Behavior B
Production of a plan or proposed set of operations
In this type of synthesis, students have to develop a plan
or propose some procedure for dealing with a task or
problem.
The plan or proposed set of operations should, in the view
of the student, meet the requirements of the task, provide
for the specifications or data to be taken into account, and
satisfy the standards and criteria generally accepted in
the subject field.
The student is not executing the plan; he is just proposing
the necessary operations
31. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Example: An experiment is being planned to determine the
amount of radiation emitted through a 25 sq. ft. Opening in a
furnace during a one minute period. A paper–thin flat sheet of
metal one foot square is held in the path of the radiation at a
distance of five feet from the opening. Its rise in temperature
is measured by means of a thermocouple.
Directions: You are to decide which of the following factors
are important in this experiment, for each factor below,
blacken
Answer space A - if the factor must be taken into account
before even a rough estimate of the amount of radiation
emitted can be made.
Answer B - if the factor need be taken into account only if a
fairly accurate estimate is made.
32. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Answer – if the factor is not likely to affect the estimate
to any measureable degree
1. The shape of the metal sheet
2. The angle at which it is held relative to the opening
3. Whether the surface of the metal is blackened or shiny
4. The temperature of the room
In this illustration the student is not required to make
his own synthesis-only to judge particular details of a
proposed set of operations.
The value of this test form is that it can sample a
variety of details in a brief amount of time.
33. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Test Problems for Assessing Synthesis Behavior C
Derivation of set of abstract relations
The student is to produce a set of hypotheses or
explanations to account for given phenomena; to create a
classification scheme, explanatory model, conceptual
scheme, or theory to account for a range of phenomena,
data, and observations; or to determine the logical
statements and hypotheses which can be deduced from a
theory, set of propositions, or set of abstract relations.
The student’s work must meet the requirements of the
phenomena and the logical possibilities inherent in the
relationships among the phenomena or propositions.
34. Developing Tests for Assessing Different
Levels of Synthesis Skill
Example
Imagine that you are able to travel into the future and study
the culture of the United States two thousand years from
now. You find that at that time the majority of positions of
influence and honor are filled by women. When you question
people, they tell you that intelligence, kindness, and a
respect for creative work are the ideal human attributes and
that women, by nature, excel men in these matters. Write an
essay in which you describe what other significant social
changes might accompany the changes described above.
Here the student is given more freedom to develop and
illustrate a simple theory about the social changes that
might take place.
35. Developing Tests for Different Levels of
Evaluation Skill
Judgment In Terms of Internal Evidence
It is important for the student to be able to detect fallacies in
reasoning.
Example: General Science
Objective: To determine whether the student can detect a
valid categorical Syllogism.
All dogs are mammals
All cats are mammals
Therefore all cats are dogs.
By securing an introductory text on logic, you can devise a
large number, of variations in deduction that you can apply
to science problems.
36. Developing Tests for Different Levels of
Evaluation Skill
Judgment in Terms of External Criteria
The type of evolution discussed here is not frequently used in
secondary or collegiate education.
Example: Science History
Objective: To determine whether the student can evaluate a
certain theory in terms of specified criteria.
Dayton’s Atomic Theory is;
A. A good example of absolute truth.
B. A good example of the static view of science
C. Correct and led to more scientific discoveries.
D. Partially in error but led to more scientific discoveries.
E. Neither correct nor in error. Nothing more was done about it.
37. Developing Tests for Different Levels of

Evaluation Techniques for Evaluation Objectives
Making of judgment about a value, for some purpose of
ideas, works, solutions etc. It involves the use of:
a. Criteria
b. Standards
Educational judgment is different from personal judgment.
Personal judgments are rarely base on some criteria and
standards.
On the other hand, evaluation found in educational
objectives is among the most complex cognitive behaviors.
In the Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives,
evaluation is placed as the last category of objectives.
38. Developing Tests for Different Levels of
Evaluation Skill
New Problems, Materials, or Situations
Evaluation made by the student should be related to new
works not treated this way in the classroom.
By new, means the material which is new to student or
which is unlikely to have been evaluated in the same way by
or for the student previously.
New material, problems and forth might be similar to those
evaluated in the learning situation in terms of difficulty or
complexity.
It is better that new material should be real in that it is
selected from works, documents, situations or other sources
that already exist rather than expressly developed for the
evaluation problems.
39. Developing Tests for Different Levels of
Evaluation Skill
Ability to evaluate
This refers to the ability to evaluate or judge works
or other givens is a complex set of skills and
behaviors which the student is expected to learn
through practice with a variety of works and
problems.
As this ability is dependent upon the rest of the
categories of taxonomy – it includes in addition
specific behaviors involving judgments and
evaluation.
40. Developing Tests for Different Levels of
Evaluation Skill
Evaluation objectives in terms of student behavior
The student can make judgments of a document or work in terms of the
accuracy, precision, and care with which it has been made (internal
accuracy; A)
The student can make judgments of a document or work in terms of the
consistency of the arguments; the relations among assumptions, evidence,
and conclusions; and the internal consistency of the logic and organization
(internal consistency; B)
The student can recognize the values and points of views used in a
particular judgment of a work (internal criteria; C)
The student can make judgments of a work by comparing with other
relevant works (internal criteria; D)
The student can make judgments of a work by using a given set of criteria
or standards (external criteria; E)
The student can make judgments of work by using his own explicit set of
criteria or standards (external criteria; F)
