The document describes a badminton skills assessment that will take place over two class periods at Aklan State University. Students will be evaluated using a rubric on their knowledge of the game, use of strategies, serving techniques, shot techniques, and teamwork/sportsmanship. During the assessment, students will play in teams and be evaluated by the teacher as they rotate through different courts. The skills test will count as 20% of the students' final grade for the badminton unit.

Badminton Skills Assessment
Description:
o Prior Assessment—students will have seen the assessment rubric prior to final
assessment. During tournament play, each group of students (3/group) had the
chance to self-assess and peer-assess one person in their group. Being they have
seen the rubric each student understands what is expected of them during the skills
test. The students will not be graded on the peer/self assessment; it will be utilized
as a tool to develop skills and prepare for the final assessment. The self/peer
assessments will be used as an assignment which will make up a small part of their
final badminton grade.
o Final Assessment—students will be assessed by the teacher during the last two days
of tournament play. The first day of testing I will have two-person teams posted on
the wall (teams will be the same for both days) and which court they will start on. I
will have the rubric for each team on a clipboard so I can pull it out when I get to
their court. All students will be given 7 minutes to practice their skills at their
courts before play and assessment starts. The tournament play will be
“Kings/Queens Court” and each game will last for about 8 minutes. At the end of 8
minutes they will have 30 seconds to 1 minute of break to move courts or get a
drink before next game begins. I will assess each team for 7-8 minutes. I will
randomly choose a team to assess until all teams have been assessed.
Script:
o Please go to the wall and look at one of the sheets of paper (all have the same
information, so do not all crowd around one) to find your name, partner, and which
court you will be starting on. I will give you about 7 minutes to warm-up and
practice you badminton skills because today and next class period I will be
conducting the skills test. You all remember the skills/strategies I am looking for
because the assessment is the same as the self/peer ones you did last week. After
the two day assessment period is done, you can stop by my office to see your final
badminton grade and get any comments from my assessment.
o At end of day one: When you get to class next time, check the wall for court
assignments and start your warm-up. Class will be the same as it was today so I can
finish up the skills test. I will then give some compliments & suggestions.
