Here is the way to achieve your desired learning outcomes (DLO). Follow this.

Activity 1 will be step 1 to 6

Step 1: Know thy self. Determine your own philosophy, by answering the 40 items scale.

Step 2: Record your answer on the matrix provided on the column S (student). Add all your scores from all the items in the cluster.

Step 3: Go to a school where you have a teacher as a resource person. Request two of the teachers to answer the same survey form that you answered. Secure a permit before asking them to answer. Your coordinator will endorse that to the teacher.

Step 4: Record this answer, in the same way you did it with your own results.

Step 5: Analyze the results in the matrix. Rank the Philosophies of each one from the Most Dominant (highest) to the Least Dominant (lowest).

Step 6: Add the result matrix as you entry to the Portfolio.

Activity 2 will Step 7 to 9

Which assessment tools did Resource Teacher use?

2. Learners must be given feedback about their performance. Feedback must be specific. Good work! is positive feedback and is welcome but actually is not a very good feedback since it is not specific. A more specific better feedback is You observed rules on subject-verb agreement and variety of sentences. Three of your commas were misplaced.

Give examples of comments of teacher on students work/answer.

3. Assessment should be on real-world application and not on out-of-context drills.
