1. Blooms taxonomy is a categorization of six learning objective which includes lower-level objects and higher-level objective. The lower level objectives are Knowledge, comprehension, and application. The higher Level objectives are analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. We agree that not all of these objectives need to be used as long as the assessment and activities correspond with the lessons and state standards.
2. Validity is the degree to which a test measures what it is intended to measure where reliability is the consistency of test results. We agree that they are both major characteristics because tests need to cover and evaluate the material in which you are trying to test. It is important when determining the reliability of tests to consider the time allotted to take the tests.
3. Most process assessment leads to product assessment. Process assessment would be how students put together a chemical solution through different process. A product assessment would be to have the students write up a report about chemical solution.
4. Three ways to evaluation performance assessment is checklists which is a quick and easy way to assess, rating scales is a way to attach a number to the quality of performance, and rubrics are used to assess multiple criteria for example an essay.
5. Elementary Teachers need to be careful of bias because everything that they are grading material that is not black and white when it comes to right or wrong. There are many things in which a teacher can do to make sure that they are evaluating each student fairly on their projects that they are completing.

I'm a little confused about what is product assessment and what is process assessment. I thought that making a chemical solution would be a product solution because the solution is the product, and the process assessment would be the student telling how they did it. I can understand the report being product since their is a physical product, as well. Is the process the actual demonstration of making the solution and the correct solution the product assessment? Ha, sorry if I have confused you too in the process, just trying to clarify.
ReplyDeleteWell, it depends on what you're assessing, are you assessing the fact that students can follow directions and correctly compose a chemical formula, or are you only looking at the formula to see if it turned out exactly right. Product assessment is only looking at the final product and is usually summative. Process assessment looks at how something is being done and judging whether or not it is being done correctly.
