The document discusses holistic student assessment. It aims to help educators gain understanding of assessment theories and distinguish between assessment of, as, and for learning. Educators are asked to develop assessment tools and tasks that evaluate student knowledge, skills, understanding, and performance. The document emphasizes assessing students before, during and after lessons using both formative and summative methods. It also discusses applying a GRASPS model for performance tasks to holistically assess learning outcomes.

2. Objectives

understanding of the theories, principles,
philosophy, policies, features of
assessment as stipulated in DepEd
Order No. 73, s. 2012
 Distinguish between and among
assessment of, as, and for learning

3. Activity
Come up with a list of activities that
would assess students along:
A – Knowledge
B – Process/Skills
C – Understanding
D – Product/Performance

4. Analysis
 How did you find the task given you?
 What classroom activities can be
given under Knowledge,
Process/Skills, Understanding, and
Product/Performance?
 Which of these activities can be
considered in each category?
 Which of these activities can be
classified as diagnostic, formative, or
summative in nature?

5.  Why is it necessary to assess
students before, during, and after the
lesson?
 What makes a holistic assessment?
 What have you realized about
assessment of learning outcome?

6. Assessment of Learning
Outcome

7. Application
Think of a performance task following
the GRASPS Model
 G (goal)
 R (roles)
 A (audience)
 S (situation)
 P (product/performance)
 S (standard)

8. Example
Topic : Social Dances

“A teacher is a very special person who
uses his or her creativity and inquiring mind to
develop the rare talent of encouraging others
to think,
to dream,
to learn,
to try,
to do!”
