PURPOSES OF EVALUATION
To determine the levels of

various time during year
To become aware of specific
difficulties that students are
facing in the class
To determine the level of the
student’s clinical
performance at various levels
To determine how far the
objectives of teaching in
particular subject are being
realized
To diagnose the student’s
strength and weakness
It helps in improvement in
curriculum

Questions
Extended Response
Question
Great deal of latitude
on how to respond to a
question.
Example: Discuss essay

type tests.
Restricted Response Question
More specific, easier to score,
improved reliability and validity
Example: Compare and contrast the
relative advantages of disadvantages of
essay and multiple choice tests with
respect to: reliability, validity,
objectivity, & usability.
OBJECTIVE TYPE QUESTIONS
It refers to any written test that requires the examinee to
select the correct answer from among one or more of
several alternatives or supply a word or two and that
demands on objective judgement when it is scored.

Signature of the observer
Setting background of incident
Date of observation
Class and school
Name of the student
Recommendations concerning
the behavior
CRITICAL INCIDENT TECHNIQUE
•Similar to the anecdotal records
•Method of assessing the student’s analytic and
problem solving competences.
•In this student performance can be recorded and
evaluated acc. to stated criteria
CHECK LIST
Check list is prepared test of
statement or a list of essential
components of a task , skill or
activity ,relating to formulae of
action , behavior and product of
some performance . Each
statement in the list is checked
