Standard 5: Assess, Provide feedback and Report of Student Learning
Focus Area: 5.1 Assess Student Learning
Graduate Descriptor: 5.1.1 - Demonstrate understanding of assessment strategies, including informal and formal, diagnostic, formative and summative approaches to assess student learning.

On my Google site, I have provided a summative Year 8 Examination for the topic Views and Perspectives. This examination demonstrates my understanding of the Graduate Descriptor 5.1.1. The task for EDFD307: Educational Assessment was to design an end of topic or mid-year examination to assess my students’ achievement of the syllabus outcomes in the unit of work, which was (Stage 4, Year 8) View and Perspectives. The examination needed to draw upon students’ work and experience during the unit. It needed to be based on an assessment plan (a table of specifications) that clearly demonstrated how the questions, syllabus outcomes and the major components of the unit were integrated.

The examination was a 60 minutes test with 10 minutes reading time. The first section of the examination was a creative writing essay and 40 minutes was allocated to complete it. The second section, which consisted of 11 multiples choice questions, was allocated 20 minutes for completion. See the snap shots below.

The multiple choice questions were questions at Bloom’s level of “understand” (Woolfolk and Magetts, 2010, p. 468). Above
