The affective domain encompasses behaviors in terms of attitudes, beliefs, and feelings. Sets of
attitudes, beliefs, and feelings comprise one’s value. There are various assessment tools that can be used to
measure affect. These are the following:
1. Checklists – one of the effective formative assessment strategies to monitor specific skills,
behaviors, or dispositions of individual or group of students (Burke,2009). It contains criteria that
focus on the intended outcome or target. It helps student in organizing the task assigned to them into
logically sequenced steps that will lead to successful completion of the task.
2. Rating Scale- help students understand the learning targets/outcomes and to focus students’ attention
to performance. Ratings help to show each other’s growth and progress. Example: Rating scale
(Attitude towards Mathematics)
Directions: put the score on the column for each statement as it applies to you. Use 1 to 5,1 being
the lowest and 5 the highest
Attitude towards Mathematics Score
1. I am happy during Mathematics class.
2. I get tired doing board work and drills.
3. I enjoy solving word problems.
3. Likert Scale uses the five-point scale: Strongly Agree, Agree, Undecided, Disagree and strongly
disagree. Scoring is based on assigning weights from 1 to 5
Example: Directions: Put a check mark on the column for each statement that applies to you.
Legend: SA –Strongly Agree, A-Agree, U undecided, D –Disagree, SD- Strongly disagree
SA A U D SD
5 4 3 2 1
1. I am happy during a Mathematics class.
2. I get doing board work and drills
4. Semantic Differential Scale – these scales use adjective pairs that provide anchors for feelings or beliefs
that are opposite in direction and intensity. Example: Traits/attitude toward Mathematics: Boring ----
---- ---- Interesting
5. Sentence Completion- The advantage of using the incomplete sentence format is that it captures
whatever comes to mind from each student.
Examples: I think Mathematics as a subject is ___________________________.

Portfolio is a systematic process and purposeful collection of student work to document the student learning
progress, efforts, and achievement towards the attainment of learning outcomes. It is a systematic process that
follows a well-organized collection of products of student work. Portfolios contain relevant items from many
different sources such as composition of students in the form of essay, reports, stories, presentation such as
observations research, investigation, and projects; narrative and anecdotal records; rating scales, rubrics, self-
reflection and checklists; visual arts such as photo folio, drawings, paintings; performances as product, group
work; and processes such as show-your work problems, stages of writing a poem or a song.
Why Use Portfolio?
1. Portfolios give students the opportunity to direct their own learning. Students can document
their efforts achievements and growth in knowledge, skills, expressions and attitudes. They can use
a variety of learning styles. Can assess their own learning and set their future learning goals.
2. Portfolios can be used to determine students’ level of achievement. It allows students to present a
holistic view of their academic achievement skills and outcomes.
3. Portfolios can be used to understand how students think, reason, organize, investigate and
communicate.
4. Portfolios can be used to communicate student efforts, progress toward accomplishing learning
goals, and accomplishments.
5. Portfolios can be used to evaluate and improve curriculum and instruction.
Basically, one big contribution of portfolio is to give the students the chance to reflect and revisit on their
performances overtime.
Types of Portfolio
The following are the emerging types of portfolio used in the teaching and learning assessment
depending on the purpose and context of the portfolio which are aligned to the learning competencies of the
course of study.
1. Showcase Portfolio. This shows the best of the students’ best work. This type of portfolio is based on
the students’ personal criteria rather than the criteria of their teacher.
2. Documentation Portfolio. Displays changes and accomplishments related to the academic performance
over time. It provides evidence about the student growth which also provides meaningful opportunities
for self-evaluation of the students.
3. Process Portfolio. This shows the steps and /or the results of a completed project or task as the primary
goal of this portfolio.
4. Product Portfolio. Is similar to the process portfolio except that its focus is on the end product rather
than on the process in which the product was developed.
5. Standard-Based Portfolio. This collects evidence that links student achievement to particular learning
standards. It focuses on specific standards that are predetermined by the teacher and discussed to the
students at the start of the school year.
ACTIVITY:
1. After graduation, you plan to apply for a teaching position in a reputable school and one of the
requirements is for you to construct a teaching portfolio that will show your qualifications for the
position being applied for. What evidence (performance or product) will you include in your portfolio?
Explain your answer.
2. You are asked to evaluate the last portfolio you have submitted; how will you process it? Do you think
your portfolio satisfies its purpose, use and characteristics? Discuss your answer.

Portfolio Evaluation
Evaluating a portfolio involves making judgments about student’s outputs. This can be done through
student evaluation, teacher evaluation and a student-teacher conference. One advantage of portfolio
assessment is allowing the students to revisit, reflect, and evaluate their own work. This allows them to practice
critiquing and conceptualizing the quality of their work based on the criteria performance. This also provides
an opportunity for students to become better achievers as they learn to reflect on their strengths and weaknesses.
Teacher as a model should be the first person to demonstrate the skills in evaluating and critiquing portfolio.
Evaluating a portfolio involves making judgment about student’s outputs. The teacher can use numerical scores
to summarize judgment or qualitative system. Scoring needs to be reliable and should not be affected by
inconsistencies not related to the qualities being judged. As a rule of thumb, it is important to remember that
the purpose of portfolio is to assess the students’ outcomes of the instructional goals. The samples of entries are
indicators whether students have achieved the goals of instruction which are evaluated based on the portfolio’s
entire content, structure, and individual entries. In most of the classroom situations, the teacher is both the
observer and the rater. If there are some important instructional decisions to be made, additional raters must be
considered in order to make scoring fairer. The Student-Teacher conference is the final step in developing
portfolio assessment. A conference with each student to review the contents, reflections, and evaluation. It
should be scheduled throughout the year which provides important link between the students and teachers. Your
students can be responsible for conducting the conference and this will serve as a motivating force for the
learners to produce excellent portfolio in the future.
ACTIVITY:
After spending a two-week workshop in utilizing portfolio assessment as an alternative tool for
assessment, Teacher Patrick, together with his co-teachers, decided to use the said alternative tool with his
Grade 8 Social Studies class. Patrick suggests to the class that they will just be selecting one best output from
their work within a week. Thus, all simple exercises and other activities are not to be put in the portfolio. The
students discuss this suggestion and readily agreed on it.
Every other month, students meet with each other to critique what was included and conduct a student-
teacher conference. At the end of the school, Teacher Patrick collects all portfolios, evaluate and rate them and
return to his students. Individual grade was given to each student, including feedback.
