2. Assessment task review a. Suitability of items Generally, when looking at each items vertically, most of the columns start with ones which indicates that this skill was easy for the higher ability students and finish with most of zeros which demonstrates that it was difficult for the lower ability students. In between, there is a mixture of ones and zeroes breaking down in the column. This demonstrates that the items in this task are suitable to use to analyse students’ ability. However, there is an irregular pattern of 1’s and 0’s for the item 1.2. The less able students could get this skill while the more able students could not get it. This may be because these students did not have this skill. Therefore, this item is still suitable to be used to assess the student’s abilities. b. Suitability of task to determine ZPDs of the cohort assessed This task is suitable to determine the ZPD of the students. The data in the Guttman chart show that only the student 1 could be able to achieve the highest number of the items. However, this student did not achieve the last three items 2.2, 4.2 and 7.2, which means that these three items are difficult to this students in particular or to all of the students in this assessment. This assessment, therefore, can avoid the “ceiling effect” for the ZPD grouping process. Moreover, the width of the zone containing a mixture of zeros and ones in the Guttman chart are narrow. The longest width between two nearby zero and one is 4 boxes,

In my point of view assessment is a testing tool by which a teacher or assessor can use to detect the outcomes of teaching, learning or assessment process with the learners by
There is a large variety of assessment methods available for assessing learners’ achievements. These include observation; questioning the learner; examining product evidence; discussion; witness testimony; looking at learner statements; recognising prior learning; simulated environment; skills tests; oral and written examinations; assignments; case studies and projects. Choosing the most appropriate assessment methods is vitally important, to help and support the learner and to ensure the job of the assessor is as straightforward, reliable and problem-free as possible.
Assessment is a valuable tool to measure students learning and achievement. It is an essential element for teacher to reflect on what and how they teach. To assess students is to collect evidence of their learning. Teachers use the information to modify their lesson plans and adjust their instructional methods; students need feedback on their performance to concentrate on their vulnerable areas. Assessment is necessary for parents to reinforce their children strength and assist them where extra attention is required. The data collected will inform school
[The formal and informal assessments in the learning segments provided direct evident throughout the learning segments as I was able to incorporate relevant and meaningful assessments with my students. In the first lesson, students will be assessed through an observation during the anticipatory activity. I will use a Smart Presentation in this lesson and have the students determine which items have the greatest/least quantity. I will collect the data using my clipboard. In learning experience 2, students will, again, be observed. I will use a checklist ensuring students are able to read quantities from left to right as well as being able to recognize the three key vocabulary terms for this unit –
Initially in this assignment, I intend to describe and evaluate two different assessment methods, which I use to assess the progress of my learners.

Students performance on tasks: the strategies, procedures, and interactions patterns employed by students in completing a task.
Assessment arrangements can be adapted by allowing the learners to have an element of choice on how the criterion is assessed. This will allow the learners to feel included and means that the tutor is not offering an alternative or necessarily forcing the learner to disclose their lack of understanding or forcing adjustment.

As an educator it is very important that a teacher uses different methods to teach the variety of different learning styles, and it is also important that the teacher uses a variety of assessment procedures. People don’t learn the same, and people don’t test the same either. I personally, am horrible when it comes to taking multiple choice and problem solving type assessments. I do better with essay and writing assessments, presentations, and teaching back what I have learned. With the understanding of how I can best be assessed myself, it will be important when I am the teacher that I use many methods to assess and grade my students work.
In this assessment task, you will demonstrate skills and knowledge required to assist in planning for recruitment and obtaining approval for your plans.
From the data in Table 2 it can be explained that the value of usable indicator varies from 75.0 to 100.0 with a range of 25.0. The average value of the usable indicator 81.9. Value of easy to use varies from 75.0 to 91.7 with a range of 16.7. The mean value of easy to use indicator is 82.1. Meanwhile the value of appealing indicator of implementation of learning model varies from 91.7 to 100.0 with a range of 8.3. The mean value of the appealing of implementing the learning model is 93.1. The mean value of usable, easy for use and appealing indicators can be grouped into very practical category. The mean value of three assessment indicators of implementation the contextual learning model is 85.7. This average value can be entered into a very practice category according to science teachers.
Many students around the United States have reading difficulties, which can be due to a variety of reason such as: low socioeconomic status, family history of learning disabilities, a neurological disorder, limited exposure, etc. Reading difficulties can lead to further problems with education and learning, therefore the struggles should be addressed and intervention techniques should be implemented promptly. The interventions need to be individualized for the student based on their needs in order to improve the student’s reading to the best of their abilities.
