BEED III-2

Learning Assessments

I. Scenario-Based As an assessment expert, you were asked for advice on the following matters. Provide
your recommendations;

Scenario 1 Here is an item found in a primary textbook characterizing people in a unit called “Racial
Harmony”

Choices: Japanese Indian British Chinese Korean Filipino

1. I am ____________. I am an English Teacher.

2. I am ____________. I am a domestic helper in Hong Kong

Would you recommend changing the items? Why?

Unquestionably yes, I will suggest changing these things on the grounds that these are instances
of generalizing. Like for instance in number 1, All of these nationalities can become English teacher if
they decide to take a program course for English education. It doesn't really imply that you must be
English teacher if you are a British national. Furthermore, for thing number 2, it likewise doesn't imply
that despite the fact that Filipinos were known to be domestic helpers in Hong Kong or in different
nations, they ought to be named domestic helper in light of the fact that not all Filipinos are domestic
helpers. These nationalities in these decisions can likewise be domestic helpers in the event that they
need to or that they wish to. Instructors should consistently think about moral and ethical principles in
offering assessments to keep the Racial Harmony and forestall being predisposition and generalize that
will bargain the student's very own experience.
