The document summarizes a workshop on learning assessment and outcomes-based teaching given by Architect A.F.M. Mohiuddin Akhand. The workshop covered topics such as formative and summative assessment, direct and indirect measures of student learning, quantitative and qualitative evidence, and continuous quality improvement. It emphasized that students learn most effectively when they understand course goals, are academically challenged, and have opportunities to apply their knowledge. The workshop promoted an outcomes-based education approach focused on what students can do rather than course credits earned.
The document discusses various concepts related to evaluation including measurement, assessment, evaluation techniques and tools.
It defines measurement as assigning numerical values to traits using specific rules. Assessment involves making inferences about characteristics based on collected information. Evaluation is a systematic process to determine if objectives are achieved and to what degree.
Some key techniques discussed are quantitative methods like oral, written and practical tests, and qualitative methods like observation and self-reporting. Tools include tests which can be teacher-made, standardized, individual or group-based. Different types of test items like objective and essay questions are also explained.
Assessment of student learning outcomesalexies raoet
The document discusses principles of good practice in assessing student learning outcomes. It states that assessment should be aligned with an institution's mission and values, and have clear learning objectives. Assessment works best when it focuses on observable student activities and experiences that lead to learning outcomes, and when it is continuous, ongoing, and cumulative over time rather than episodic. The goal of assessment is to determine whether instruction, services, and activities are producing the desired student learning results.
1) Authentic assessment involves evaluating students' performance on real-world tasks to demonstrate skills, rather than through indirect testing methods.
2) It is characterized by clear performance criteria, emphasis on skills over recall, learner-centered activities, and assessment of process and products.
3) Authentic assessment differs from traditional methods in requiring the construction of responses rather than selection, simulating real situations over contrived ones, and providing direct evidence of abilities instead of indirect measures.
This document provides an overview of assessment and evaluation approaches. It discusses educational evaluation standards from organizations in the United States and Philippines. Evaluation approaches are classified based on epistemology, perspective, and orientation. Objectivist approaches use empirical inquiry while subjectivist approaches consider personal experiences. True evaluation determines value, quasi-evaluation may or may not, and pseudo-evaluation promotes views. Various evaluation methods are described like experimental research, testing programs, and accountability studies.
Authentic assessment presents students with real-world challenges that require them to apply relevant skills and knowledge, accurately evaluating what they have learned. It examines students' collective abilities through tasks analogous to adult problems. Examples include performances, portfolios, self-assessments, and projects. Authentic assessment improves teaching and learning by giving students clarity on expectations to master engaging tasks, and helping teachers believe results are meaningful for instruction.
Assessment of learning refers to strategies designed to measure student achievement and determine if learning outcomes have been met. It provides evidence of students' proficiency to others such as parents, educators, and future institutions. Assessment of learning tasks must accurately reflect curriculum standards and allow students to demonstrate their understanding through a variety of methods such as tests, projects, presentations and portfolios. Teachers ensure the quality of assessment of learning through reliable, valid and equitable processes to produce defensible results that can be used to make important decisions about students.
This document discusses key concepts related to assessment of learning. It defines assessment, measurement, evaluation and testing. It outlines different modes of assessment including traditional, performance, and portfolio assessments. It also discusses types of assessment processes such as diagnostic, formative and summative assessments.

An Introduction to Contemporary Educational Testing and MeasurementIrene Rose Villote
1. Tests are tools that can be appropriately or inappropriately used depending on their technical adequacy and the purpose and population they are being used for.
2. Testing is different from assessment in that testing involves administering and scoring tests, while assessment is a comprehensive process that considers test results alongside other information.
3. In recent history, educational testing has increased in use for accountability purposes in response to concerns about education standards, but there are ongoing debates around high-stakes testing and ensuring tests are valid and reliable for different populations.
The document discusses evaluating student performance in training programs. It describes both external evaluation, where instructors evaluate students' knowledge, skills, and attitudes through tests and other assessments, and student self-evaluation, where students assess their own learning and progress. For self-evaluation, the document explains that students self-assess, self-correct, reflect on, and direct their own learning. It provides suggestions for course design elements that can support student self-evaluation, such as pre- and post-course assessments, practice problems with feedback, and opportunities for student reflection and feedback.
Concept of test , measurement and evaluationrajwantiarya
Test and measurement provide information that is used for evaluation. Tests gather information about a student's knowledge, skills, or other attributes. This information is quantified through measurement and presented numerically. The results of measurement are then used to evaluate how well a student has achieved the intended learning outcomes and objectives. Evaluation involves both quantitative and qualitative assessment using a variety of methods and tools. The purpose of evaluation is to improve the educational program and provide feedback to students, teachers, and administrators.
The document discusses summative evaluation, which assesses learner achievement at the end of a teaching period using tests, provides feedback, and measures the effectiveness of curriculum, teaching methods, and programs. Summative evaluations typically use quantitative measures like test scores and occur at the end of a learning process, such as after a chapter, unit, or semester. They allow evaluators to assess whether overall goals and objectives were met and compare learner groups.

Academics' Understanding of Authentic AssessmentDenise Whitelock
This paper reports on a project undertaken at The Open University which set out to explore academics’ notion and practice of authentic assessment through the exploration of the following research objectives:
1. To understand what is meant by authentic assessment in the literature by examining a set of examples of authentic assessments.
2. To construct a questionnaire which could be used by Open University academics to explore their understanding of authentic assessment.
3. To investigate through means of a questionnaire the types of assessment academics were currently undertaking and whether they fitted into a broad definition of authentic assessment.
The findings from the electronic survey suggest that Open University academics are on the way to designing meaningful assessments for their students. Although many of the courses were employing assessment tasks that could be considered as ‘authentic’, only 25% of the academics had heard of the terms ‘authentic learning’ and ‘authentic assessment’, which is a low response compared with ‘learning design’. However, there has been a well publicised Learning Design initiative taking place across the University.
This document provides information about physics educational assessment. It discusses the meaning of assessment, measurement, and evaluation.

Role on standarized and non standarized test in guidance on counselingUmaRani841531
Standardized and non-standardized tests can both be used to develop student profiles and provide guidance. Standardized tests assess student achievement against a benchmark and allow comparisons between students. They are limited in describing individual student needs. Non-standardized tests like portfolios, interviews, and projects are created by teachers and better measure individual performance and learning. Both types of tests can be used for accountability if they inform teaching and show student progress over time.
Classroom assessment is the process of gathering evidence of what students know, understand, and are able to do throughout the instructional process. It includes both quantitative and qualitative methods to measure validity, reliability, student learning, and performance. Formative assessment is used during instruction to provide feedback and guide improvement, while summative assessment evaluates learning at the end of a period. Different assessment products and tools can be used, including projects, oral presentations, debates, and play-based assessments.

The document discusses key concepts related to teaching, learning, and assessment. It provides definitions and explanations of important terms like objectives, outcomes, assessment, evaluation, formative and summative assessment, and direct and indirect assessment methods. It emphasizes that the primary purpose of assessment is to improve student learning and that assessment should be connected to learning objectives and used to evaluate and enhance teaching, learning, and programs.
The document discusses the functions of assessment in learning and development. It explains that initial assessment ensures the assessor understands the learner's knowledge, skills, and performance. The assessor must also ensure the learner understands the course units and support them in choosing appropriate units. The assessor and learner then decide on an assessment plan, including dates, times to meet, and assessment methods. Assessments provide measurements of a learner's achievements and identify areas for development.
Educational assessment is a process used to document students' knowledge, skills, attitudes, and beliefs through measurable terms. The overall goal of assessment is to improve student learning and provide information on student progress and achievement of learning outcomes. There are different types of assessment, including formative assessment used during instruction to monitor learning, summative assessment used at the end to evaluate learning and assign grades, and diagnostic assessment used at the beginning to identify student strengths and weaknesses. Effective assessment considers principles like validity, reliability, and fulfilling the intended purpose of the assessment.
The document discusses test measurement, assessment, and evaluation in education. It defines key terms like test, measurement, objective and subjective tests, formative and summative assessment. Formative assessment is used for feedback, while summative assessment evaluates learning at the end of a unit. Evaluation examines overall achievement and can be process-based or examine outcomes. Assessment informs teaching, while evaluation makes judgments about performance and effectiveness.
This document discusses the uses of educational assessment. It states that assessment drives instruction by informing teachers what students know and still need to learn. Assessment also drives student learning by influencing what and how they study. Additionally, assessment informs students of their progress and helps teachers improve their practice by reflecting on student results. The conclusion emphasizes that the primary purposes of assessment are to enhance student learning and improve teaching methods.

Robert Adam introduced a new interpretation of classical architecture in the late 18th century that combined classical features with colorful decorations. He designed circular and oval rooms with classical plasterwork on walls and ceilings and painted colors. Adam drew inspiration from archaeological discoveries at Pompeii and Herculaneum. Neoclassical style furniture became more geometric and inspired by classical motifs, featuring designs by Hepplewhite and Sheraton that were simpler versions of Adam's original designs. Textiles prominently featured printed designs of classical motifs and patterns inspired by Eastern imports.

The Louis XVI style had replaced the rococo style by the 1750s in France. Inspired by classical Greek and Roman motifs discovered in Pompeii and Herculaneum, it featured straight lines, thin wood pieces in geometric designs, and plain decorations instead of elaborate rococo styles. King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette encouraged the neoclassical style, known as the Louis Seize, which became synonymous with luxury. Architects like Jacques-Ange Gabriel designed buildings like the Petit Trianon featuring rectangular rooms decorated simply in grey or white. Furniture from this period had a classical feel with oval backs, tapered legs, and was often painted or inlaid with woods like sat
Louis XIV was inspired by the home of his finance minister, Vaux-le-Vicomte, and took its team of architects and designers to enlarge a hunting lodge outside Paris into the palace of Versailles. As Versailles was immediately copied across Europe, Louis had immense influence on the development of Baroque style in the 17th century. He commissioned furniture makers to create furnishings for his residences, establishing a new national style. This luxurious Louis XIV style featured veneers of brass, ebony, and tortoiseshell, as well as repoussé furniture with inlaid silver, becoming known for its opulence.
Frank Lloyd Wright was a pioneering American architect known for developing the "prairie style" of architecture. The prairie style featured low, horizontal buildings with earth-colored materials to blend with the Midwestern landscape. Wright's prairie houses revolutionized interior space by reducing walls so rooms flowed together instead of being divided into boxes. His most famous prairie house was the Robie House in Chicago, and other notable works included the Larkin Building and Unity Temple, where he helped popularize the use of concrete in modern architecture.
During the early 18th century Georgian period in England, interior design evolved from the Baroque style. Interiors became lighter and featured new woods like mahogany. Furniture accumulated in rooms for decorative purposes, including bookshelves, porcelain collections, and busts from the Grand Tour. Wallpapers became popular in bedrooms while paneling remained in other rooms. To house the growing middle class, architects developed terraced housing and town squares that brought nature into cities through lawns, trees and flowers. Interior architectural details like plasterwork and broken pediments became more ornate.
The Directoire style developed from the Louis XVI style in the late 18th century, taking influence from Greek and Roman art with a more austere and classical form. It took its name from the political committee that ruled France from 1795 to 1800. Interior decoration became plainer, characterized by flat-toned plaster walls or fabric hangings with classical borders. Rectangular forms and painted motifs were common, along with military influences and plain walls decorated with all-over patterns or printed cottons. Furniture was delicate, slender, and influenced by Greek styles, often featuring ormolu. Colors included red, white, and blue along with green, violet, white and gold, typically in combinations like black and iv
Contemporary interior design features neutral color palettes, clean furniture lines, and natural fabrics. Interiors contain toned-down elements and bold accents of color. Lighting is used artistically with straight lamps in sleek finishes. Contemporary design incorporates texture and colorful artwork for comfort, while modern design emphasizes form over function with geometric shapes and stark whites. Ceiling colors in contemporary homes are customized with a touch of wall color mixed into white paint.
The Biedermeier style developed in early 1800s German-speaking countries in response to economic hardship from Napoleon's blockade. It featured simple, functional furniture made from wood like cherry and maple, with bright upholstery fabrics. Windows had plain sheers and curtains to let in light. The style offered an affordable decorative solution throughout the 19th century that was acceptable across social levels relying more on decoration than architecture. Furniture was small but comfortable, floors were wood, and walls were painted or papered with stripes or flowers. The style took its name from a literary character representing family life and conservative values of comfortable living.
The Arts and Crafts Movement began in mid-19th century England in reaction to industrialization and mass production. It advocated for honest construction using high quality materials and traditional craftsmanship. Designers like William Morris drew inspiration from medieval styles and guilds. Typical Arts and Crafts homes featured local materials, inglenook fireplaces, and oak furniture. While the movement sought good design for all, its products were often expensive and bought by the wealthy due to their emphasis on craftsmanship over mass production.
Art Nouveau emerged in the late 19th century as a reaction against historical revival styles. It originated in different parts of Europe, being called "Style Liberty" in Italy and "Jugendstil" in Germany. Characterized by flowing, organic lines inspired by nature, Art Nouveau was widely used for furniture, interior decoration, and other decorative objects. Notable artists who worked in the style included Aubrey Beardsley, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Emile Gallé, and Louis Comfort Tiffany. Architects like Antoni Gaudí and Victor Horta also incorporated Art Nouveau elements into their buildings.
Art Deco style originated from the 1925 Paris Exhibition and was a reaction against Art Nouveau. It was characterized by geometric shapes, streamlined forms, and classical influences. Art Deco used luxurious materials like ebony and ivory along with decorative motifs. While it was popular in France, it found less favor in Germany and Britain but influenced mass production. Color schemes ranged from vibrant hues in the 1920s to more muted tones in the 1930s as Modernism increased in popularity. Furniture incorporated metals, glass, and pale woods with geometric designs.

This document discusses energy consumption in commercial office buildings in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It begins with an introduction to Dhaka's population growth and urbanization challenges. It then outlines a research study on the energy usage of private sector offices. The study found that offices rely heavily on active cooling systems like air conditioning rather than passive designs, resulting in high energy usage. The document then discusses sustainable design concepts like passive cooling, daylighting, and energy efficiency. It provides climate data on Dhaka's hot and humid weather. Finally, the document summarizes preliminary findings from the research study, which indicate that air conditioning and lifts account for 80% of commercial building energy consumption in Dhaka.
Interior Architecture is a multidisciplinary field that designs interior spaces to create better environments for people.

LEARNING ASSESSMENT
Assessment for learning involves teachers using
evidence about students' knowledge, understanding
and skills to inform their teaching. Sometimes
referred to as 'formative assessment', it usually
occurs throughout the teaching and learning process
to clarify student learning and understanding.

What is the definition of assessment in education?
Assessment is the process of gathering and
discussing information from multiple and diverse
sources in order to develop a deep understanding of
what students know, understand, and can do with
their knowledge as a result of
their educationalexperiences; the process
culminates when assessment results are used to
improve

STUDENT LEARNING ASSESSMENT
Evaluating Student Learning
There are many ways to approach the evaluation of student
learning. The characteristics of good evidence of student
learning include considerations of direct and indirect methods
for gathering evidence of student learning, the appropriate use
of quantitative and qualitative evidence, and other
methodological considerations. First, however, it is important to
understand the fundamental assessment concepts of formative
and summative assessment and benchmarking.
6. Formative and Summative Assessment
Formative assessment is ongoing assessment that is intended to improve an
individual student’s performance, student learning outcomes at the course or
program level, or overall institutional effectiveness. By its nature, formative
assessment is used internally, primarily by those responsible for teaching a course
or developing a program. Ideally, formative assessment allows a professor,
professional staff member, or program director to act quickly to adjust the contents
or approach of a course or program. For instance, a faculty member might revise
his or her next unit after reviewing students’ performance on an examination at the
end of the first unit, rather than simply forging ahead with the pre-designated
contents of the course. Many instructors also solicit repeated brief evaluations of
their teaching, and the data gleaned from these can be used to make adjustments
that may improve learning, such as the introduction of more discussion into a class.
7. In contrast, summative assessment occurs at the end of a unit, course, or
program. The purposes of this type of assessment are to determine whether
or not overall goals have been achieved and to provide information on
performance for an individual student or statistics about a course or program
for internal or external accountability purposes. Grades are the most
common form of summative assessment. Goals for student learning will be
expressed summatively when faculty members are describing what they
expect students to be able to do or what skills they expect students to
achieve when they complete a course or a program or when they graduate
from the institution. Formative and summative assessment work together to
improve learning. They should be central components of assessment at the
course level, and where appropriate, at the program level.
8. Direct and Indirect Methods for Assessing Student Learning The concepts of
direct and indirect methods of evaluating student learning are often confused
with each other and with quantitative and qualitative forms of information. Each
of these has its merits and drawbacks. Direct and indirect methods of
evaluating learning relate to whether or not the method provides evidence in
the form of student products or performances. Such evidence demonstrates
that actual learning has occurred relating to a specific content or skill. Indirect
methods reveal characteristics associated with learning, but they only imply
that learning has occurred. These characteristics may relate to the student,
such as perceptions of student learning, or they may relate to the institution,
such as graduation rates. When a student completes a calculus problem
correctly and shows her work, learning is demonstrated directly. When the
same student describes her own calculus abilities as excellent, she is
demonstrating indirectly that she has learned calculus. Both of these pieces of
information about the student’s performance are important. For example, a
student’s perception that she is doing poorly in calculus when she is actually
doing well would provide important information to both the student and the
professor. However, indirect evidence—in this case, a perception—is less
meaningful without the associated direct and tangible evidence of learning.
9. Examples of Direct and Indirect Measures of Student Learning
Direct Measures
¬Course and homework
assignments ¬Examinations and
quizzes ¬Standardized tests
¬Term papers and reports
¬Observations of field work,
internship performance, service
learning, or clinical experiences
¬Research projects ¬Class
discussion participation ¬Case
study analysis ¬Rubric (a
criterion-based rating scale)
scores for writing, oral
presentations, and performances
¬Artistic performances and
products ¬Grades that are based
on explicit criteria related to clear
learning goals
Indirect Measures
¬Course evaluations ¬Test
blueprints (outlines of the concepts
and skills covered on tests)
¬Percent of class time spent in
active learning ¬Number of student
hours spent on service learning
¬Number of student hours spent on
homework ¬Number of student
hours spent at intellectual or
cultural activities related to the
course ¬Grades that are not based
on explicit criteria related to clear
learning goals
10. Quantitative vs. Qualitative Evidence
In every example of direct and indirect assessment cited above, the
evaluation of student learning could provide either qualitative or quantitative
information. Both qualitative and quantitative information are valuable forms
of evidence about student outcomes. Quantitative evidence consists of data
that are represented numerically. For instance, performance on a test or
responses to a questionnaire may be scored so that a number represents the
degree to which an individual performed or agreed/disagreed with a certain
concept. Because quantitative data are expressed in numbers, they can be
compared directly or subjected to statistical analysis, and they can enable
the researcher to make certain assumptions when comparing one data point
to another. Quantitative data also may peremit one to express numerically
meaningful changes in performance (given certain conditions). One may
claim, for instance, that a change in a test score from 50 to 60 represents a
10-point or a 20 percent gain in an individual’s performance, expressed as a
percentage of his or her original score. Quantitative data, therefore, are
valued for the ease with which calculations and comparisons can be made,
and for the easily understandable representations of performance that they
produce.
11. Qualitative evidence typically comes in two forms. The first form involves
simple categorization of individuals into discrete groups (e.g., employed or
unemployed; participates in athletics or does not participate in athletics). The
second form of qualitative evidence is data expressed in prose or narrative. A
question is asked of an individual and he or she responds in a free-form
manner, expressing, for instance, an idea, opinion, or evaluation. Because of
their non-numerical nature, qualitative data cannot be subjected directly to
statistical analyses, nor can easy direct comparisons be made without
engaging in an intervening process to categorize or interpret the data.
Qualitative data, however, can be “richer” than quantitative data, because
they provide a more extensive variety of information related to a particular
learning goal. Many faculty members, for instance, use the numerical scores
(quantitative data) from their teaching evaluations to make overall judgments
of their own performance, but they value the qualitative, narrative comments
from students as more useful in revealing students’ personal perceptions of a
course.

A Message to Faculty Members:
Students learn effectively when they have opportunities to revise their work.
If you currently do not grade multiple drafts of papers, projects, or lab
reports, or provide multiple critiques of artwork or performances,
consider taking at least one assignment and building in two or more
reviews. On the earlier review or reviews, offer comments or grade with
a rubric, but give students an opportunity to refine their work further
before you assign a final grade. If necessary, consider making the
project shorter or eliminating another graded assignment in order to
provide time for the extra grading additional reviews will entail. Another
way to provide additional opportunities for students to revise their work is
to initiate a system of peer review in which students share work with
each other and review it according to pre-defined objective criteria.
15. Students learn effectively when they understand course and program goals
Human beings take in information and learn new things much better when
they have a framework upon which to rest new ideas. For instance, as an
expert in your field, you can read a scholarly article much faster than can a
novice. From prior experience, you know why the material presented in the
article is important or not, whether it is controversial, whether it adds
significantly to the current knowledge base in the area, and whether it
appears to be a reflection of solid theory in your discipline. Without such
background, the contents of the article would be meaningless or at least not
as rich. If your syllabus has no goals or objectives listed, you are providing
your students with no framework to help them understand where the course
fits in with other courses, how the skills they will be acquiring translate to
other
16. Strategies to Improve Student Learning
There is increasing evidence that students learn most effectively when:
• They understand course and program goals and the characteristics of excellent
work.
• They are academically challenged and encouraged to focus on developing higher-
order thinking skills, such as critical thinking and problem solving, as well as
discipline-specific knowledge.
• They spend more time actively involved in learning and less time listening to
lectures.
• They engage in multidimensional “real world” tasks. • Their learning styles are
accommodated.
• They have positive interactions with faculty and work collaboratively with fellow
students; all learners—students and professors—respect and value others as
learners.
• They participate in out-of-class activities, such as co-curricular activities and service
learning opportunities, that build on what they are learning in the classroom.
• Assignments and assessments are intertwined with learning activities and focus on
the most important course and program goals.
• They have opportunities to revise their work.
• They reflect on what and how they have learned.
• They have a culminating “capstone” experience, such as a seminar, internship,
independent study, research project, or thesis, that lets them synthesize what they
have learned over the course of their college experience.
17. Outcome-Based Education (OBE)
• OBE is an educational process that focuses on what students can do or
the qualities they should develop after they are taught.
• OBE involves the restructuring of curriculum, assessment and reporting
practices in education to reflect the achievement of high order learning
and mastery rather than accumulation of course credits.
• Both structures and curricula are designed to achieve those capabilities
or qualities.
• Discourages traditional education approaches based on direct instruction
of facts and standard methods.
• It requires that the students demonstrate that they have learnt the
required skills and content.
18. Why OBE - Deficiencies of Traditional
Provides students with a learning environment with little attention to
whether or not students ever learn the material.
Students are given grades and rankings compared to each other –
students become exam oriented or CGPA driven.
Graduates are not completely prepared for the workforce.
Lack of emphasis on soft skills needed in jobs e.g. communication skills,
interpersonal skills, analytical skills, working attitude etc.
Education
Focus and Benefits of OBE
OBE addresses the following key questions:
• What do we want the students to have or be able to do?
• How can we best help students achieve it?
• How will we know whether they students have achieved it?
• How do we close the loop for further improvement
19. Benefits of OBE:
1. More directed & coherent curriculum.
2. Graduates will be more “relevant” to
industry & other stakeholders (more well
rounded graduates)
3. Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) is
in place.
20. Expectations on Students under
OBE – the Outcomes
• Students are expected to be able to do more challenging tasks other
than memorize and reproduce what was taught.
• Students should be able to: write project proposals, complete projects,
analyze case studies, give case presentations, show their abilities to
think, question, research, and make decisions based on the findings.
• Be more creative, able to analyze and synthesize information.
• Able to plan and organize tasks, able to work in a team as a
community or in entrepreneurial service teams to propose solutions to
problems and market their solutions.

24. Roles of the module teacher for better outcome
Know the required Programme Outcomes and Programme Objectives.
For each course, review the Learning Outcomes at the beginning of each
trimester. This gives you an idea of the knowledge and skills expected from
a particular course.
Be more proactive in your teaching process to make sure that students
acquire the Learning Outcomes of subjects.
Make sure that students demonstrate through the assessment methods that
the required skills and knowledge have been acquired.
Insure that your students are attaining the programme outcomes and
programme Objectives as a whole.
Give constructive feedbacks on the programme/course/academic staff to
obtain better evaluation
Have dialog sessions regarding your module content and assessments with
other faculty members, Hod, Dean, etc.
