This document discusses portfolio assessment and provides guidance on developing portfolio assessments. It defines a portfolio as a planned collection of student work and achievements that is created collaboratively between the teacher and student. It notes portfolios can show a student's mastery, effort, growth, and the process they took to learn. The document then provides steps to develop portfolio assessments, including deciding the purpose, skills to assess, who will plan it, what to include, how to rate items, and logistical details.
3. A planned collection of learner
achievement that documents
what a student has
accomplished and the steps
taken to get there. The collection
represents a collaborative effort
among teacher and learner, to
decide on portfolio purpose,
content, and evaluation criteria.
5. - Is based on the idea that a collection
of a learner's work throughout the year
is one of the best ways to show both
final achievement and the effort put
into getting there.
6. A portfolio is their
way of showing
what they can
really do
8. They show off a learner’s best achievement.
They also show the steps the learner
took to get there.
They compile the learner’s best
work but they also include the
works in progress
9. They are an ideal way to
assess final mastery, effort,
reflection, and growth in
learning that tell the
“learner’s story” of
achievement.
10. We believe that a portfolio’s greatest potential
is for showing teachers, parents, and learners a
richer array of what students know and can do
than paper and pencil tests and other
“snapshot” assessments. If designed properly,
portfolios can show a learner’s ability to think
and to solve problems, but to use strategies and
procedural-type skills, and to construct
knowledge
11. What are the reasons of using portfolios?
1. Portfolios are meant to communicate
to parents and other teachers the level of
achievement that a learner has reached.
2. Supplement grades by showing
parents, teachers, and learners the
supporting evidence.
3. Assess both achievement and growth I
an authentic context.
12. Representativeness
- The best way to
ensure this ,is to be clear at the
outset about cognitive learning skills
and dispositions that you want to
assess and to require a variety of
products that reflect these.
13. Rubrics
-It is designing clear
criteria to assess complex performances
or demonstrations also apply to assessing
portfolio.
14. Relevance
- Measurement
devices often fail to measure what
they intend to measure because
they require learner skills that are
extraneous to those the instrument
was built to measure.
15. Step 1. Deciding on the Purpose for a
Portfolio:
-Monitoring student progress
-Communicating what has been learned to
parents
-Passing on information to subsequent
teachers
-Evaluating how well something was taught
-Showing off what has been accomplished
-Assigning a course grade
16. Step 2. Identifying Cognitive Skills and
Dispositions
-They can measure growth and
development of competence in areas like
knowledge construction, cognitive
strategies, procedural skills, and
metaconition
-Dispositions or habit of mind like
adaptability, acceptance of
criticism,persistence, collaboration, and
desire for mastery.
17. Step 3. Deciding Who Will Plan the
Portfolio
-You, the learners, and parents are a team
for helping the student to improve writing,
math reasoning, or scientific thinking and
to assemble examples of this growing
competence.
18. Step 4. Deciding Which Products to Put in
the Portfolio and How Many Samples of
Each Product
-Number and Operations
-Estimation
-Predictions
19. Step 5. Building Portfolio Rubrics
-Quality of Reflection
-Writing Conventions
-Organization
-Planning
-Quality of Revision
20. Step 6.Developing a Procedure to
Aggregate All Portfolio Ratings
1. Decide on the weight in terms of
percentage that would up to 100%
2. Take the average score for each product
and multiply that by the weight.
3. Add the products to get an overall score
21. Step 7. Determining the Logistics
-Timelines
-How products are turned in and returned
-Where final products are kept
-Who has access to the portfolio
-Plan a final conference
