Check List
Teachers design assessment tools with two
broad purposes:
 to collect information that will inform
classroom instruction, and
 to monitor students’ progress towards
achieving year-end learning outcomes.

3. PORTFOLIOS
• Student portfolios may be collected from the time that students enter a
program until they graduate or may be collected for narrower time frames.
• Among the types of materials contained in a portfolio may be: research
papers, essays, drafts of written material leading to a final product,
laboratory research, videotapes of performances, exhibits of creative
work, and examinations
• A particularly valuable component of student portfolios is the reflective
essay, in which the student reflects upon her or his growth in scholarship
or creative efforts and draws conclusions about his or her strengths and
weaknesses at the time the portfolio is compiled.
• The primary advantage is that it can be designed to represent a broad view
of student academic development, one that also contains some depth.
• The primary drawback of the portfolio is that it takes time for faculty to
review.
