QUESTION: 1
1.1. Describing types of assessments:
1.1.1. Baseline assessment
• It is the starting point from which measurements and forecasts for the future
can be made. By comparing a learner's performance to their baseline
assessment, baseline assessment can also be used to assess the quality of
education that the school is delivering on a whole-school level. By
measuring each student's potential and aptitude for learning, baseline
assessments enable schools to better understand the needs of their pupils and
the effects they are having on their academic development. A high-quality
on-entry baseline evaluation gives you and the student access to information
about what they already know and are capable of doing, saving you both
time and expanding your options for enhancing the learning experience. An
educator can use baseline testing to evaluate a learner's brain function,
including learning and memory abilities, attention span and ability to focus,
as well as how quickly he or she thinks and solves problems, in order to
support those who encounter learning barriers in the teaching and learning
environment.
1.1.2. Formative assessment
• Formative assessment aims to keep track of student learning and provide
continual feedback that both students and teachers can utilize to enhance
their instruction. Formative evaluations, in particular, assist students in
identifying their areas of strength and weakness and focus on those that
, lOMoAR cPSD| 42036583
require improvement. One can assist a learner through in-class conversations
where he or she discusses the topic of the day with the students and actively
engages with them in order to support those who encounter learning hurdles
in the teaching and learning environment.
1.1.3. Summative assessment
• At the end of a unit-length of instruction, this assessment measures the
success of the students in terms of their learning, knowledge, competency,
and success.
Summative exams are virtually always officially scored and frequently given
a high weighting. Final representations are a tool that can be used to benefit
students who encounter learning difficulties while in the classroom or
learning setting. A teacher can correct a student like this in a way that they
will comprehend while making representations.
1.1.4. Diagnostic assessment
• Before beginning instruction, teachers can examine students' knowledge,
abilities, and knowledge gaps using a diagnostic examination to determine
their strengths and limitations. With the help of this type of assessment,
educators can create lessons that are both relevant and effective and can
cater to the needs of each student. For example, one must evaluate a
student's work from assignments, work samples, or assessments in order to
support learners who encounter learning hurdles in the teaching and learning
environment.
1.1.5. Recognition of prior learning assessment
, lOMoAR cPSD| 42036583
• The candidate may apply to be evaluated through a Recognition of Prior
Learning (RPL) process in situations where the individual meets all entry
requirements. RPL is a strict procedure where candidates must be
determined competent in relation to the outcomes and competencies of the
registered qualification and designation.
1.2. Terminologies descriptions:
1.2.1. Examination:
• Refers to any assessment activity, instrument, or program that has been
designed, developed, and implemented by Provincial Education Departments
and the Department of Basic Education either collectively or individually.
The term "examination" refers to the conduct of an end-of-term and/or once-
off endof-year assessment.
1.2.2. Essay :
• It's a brief writing on a particular topic, often written by students as part of
their coursework.
1.1.3. Project work :
• It is labor that emphasizes finishing a task. With project work, students
typically practice a variety of skills and linguistic systems while using a lot
of resources, including time, people, and supplies.
1.1.4. Portfolio work:
