           Yes, it is possible for a test to be valid but not reliable. In the field of measurement and
   assessment, validity and reliability are two important concepts that are used to evaluate the quality
   of a test or measurement instrument. While both concepts are related, they have distinct meanings
   and can exist independently of each other.
         Reliability refers to the consistency or stability of test results. A test is considered reliable if
   it produces consistent results over time, across different test takers, and under different testing
   conditions. This means that if you give the same test to the same group of people on different
   occasions, the results you get should be very similar. Validity, on the other hand, refers to the
   extent to which a test measures what it is intended to measure. A valid test accurately assesses the
   construct or concept it is intended to measure. For example, if a test is meant to measure
   intelligence, it should actually measure intelligence and not some other unrelated construct.
            Reliability is necessary for validity, but it is not sufficient. In other words, if a test is
   unreliable, it cannot be valid. However, while a test may be reliable, it may not be valid. This can
   happen when tests consistently produce the same results but do not accurately measure the
   construct of interest. For example, consider a hypothetical driving ability test. A test can be
   considered reliable if it consistently produces the same results for people who take it multiple
   times. However, if the test does not accurately assess actual driving ability but rather measures
   something unrelated, such as reaction time, is not valid. In these cases, the test will consistently
   produce the same results but may not measure the intended construct. This can be caused by flaws
   in the test design, such as poorly worded questions or unrelated test items.
            In conclusion, we note that while tests may indeed be valid, they may not be reliable.
   Reliability is a prerequisite to validity, but tests may consistently produce the same results but fail
   to measure the construct they are intended to measure. Validity is needed to ensure that a test
   measures exactly what it is intended to measure.
Two General Approaches in Measuring the Acquisition of Motor and Oral Skills
          This method involves students performing skills in front of a teacher, such as dribbling and
throwing a ball in a physical education class. Teachers can monitor progress, provide feedback, and
record progress. Grading can be holistic or atomistic. In holistic grading, teachers consider knowledge
of the topic, organization, voice projection, and passion. The student whose presentation best matches
the teacher’s ideal will receive the highest score. In atomistic observation, teachers use task analysis
to identify key subtasks. For example, when dribbling a ball, the teacher determines the necessary
movements and develops a checklist. As students perform, the teacher checks off the subtasks. Once
completed, a performance grade is assigned.
       Teachers can use projects from different learning areas to assess student performance. Student
products can include drawings, models, and construction paper products. The principles of holistic
and atomistic observation apply to project evaluation. Teachers identify prototypes representing
different levels of project performance or analyze the work and assign grades to subtasks. Students
must be informed of the evaluation criteria and procedures.
       While the end product is important, the processes leading to it are equally important. Teachers
should consider students’ skills in planning, inquiry, problem-solving, and decision-making
throughout the project. This approach provides a comprehensive assessment of a student’s abilities.
Regular feedback is crucial in project evaluation, helping students understand their strengths and areas
for improvement.
   Advantages:
   1. Direct Observations of Students Learning: Performance-based assessments allow teachers
       to assess areas of learning that are not covered by traditional assessments.
   2. Good Instructional Alignment: Instructional alignment means that teachers check what they
       are teaching.
   3. Interesting Assessments: Because performance-based assessments typically involve real-
       world problems, students tend to find these assessments more interesting and challenging.
   4. Active Student Learning: Performance-based assessments can empower students by giving
       them freedom of choice about the direction of their learning within parameters set by
       the teacher. Giving students this sense of ownership over their learning can be a powerful
       motivator.
   5. Higher-Order Thinking Skills: Performance-based assessments encourage students to use
       higher-order thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
   Disadvantages
   1. Time consuming: Performance-based assessments often require                  more time to develop,
       administer, and score than traditional paper-pencil tests.
   2. Difficult to score: Performance-based assessments can be difficult to score objectively, as
       there may be multiple ways to solve a problem or complete a task.
   3. Subject to bias: Performance-based assessments may be more susceptible to bias than
       traditional paper-pencil tests.
   4. Limited coverage: Performance-based assessments may not fully reflect the breadth and
       depth of a topic or skill.
   5. May not be appropriate for all students: Some students may perform better on traditional
       paper-based tests than on performance-based assessments.
   Affective assessment evaluates a student’s attitudes, values, and emotional responses, known as
the affective domain. This is one of the three main areas of Bloom’s Taxonomy, along with the
cognitive domain (knowledge and intellectual skills) and the psychomotor domain (physical
manipulation of tools).
   Affective assessment aims to understand and evaluate the less practical aspects of learning. It
provides a holistic view of a student’s learning experience, considering their emotions, attitudes, and
values beyond just knowledge and skills. This is particularly important in subjects like ethics,
citizenship, or society where values and attitudes are key.
   Affective assessments can help teachers adjust their teaching strategies to better meet student
needs. By understanding learners’ views and values, educators can create more engaging and effective
learning environments. For example, if a student is passionate about environmental issues, educators
can incorporate this into their teaching for a more relevant learning experience.
   Moreover, affective assessment can identify potential learning barriers. If a student has a negative
attitude toward a subject, it may hinder their learning. Educators can address this by making the topic
more interesting or addressing student concerns.
   Affective assessments can be self-report surveys, interviews, observations, and peer evaluations.
These methods provide valuable information about students’ attitudes and values, but they have
challenges, such as potential dishonesty in self-reports and subjectivity in observations.
   In conclusion, affective assessment assesses less tangible learning aspects, like attitudes, values,
and emotional responses. It provides a holistic view of the student’s learning experience, helps tailor
teaching strategies, and identifies potential learning barriers. Despite its challenges, it’s a valuable
tool to complement traditional, cognitively focused assessments.

V. Reflection
            We first defined specific objectives. We wanted students to identify and categorize shapes,
     use descriptive language, analyze findings, and articulate understanding. We believed these
     objectives would encourage critical thinking and enhance communication skills. We decided on a
     “Shape Hunt” activity, promoting teamwork and collaborative learning. The task of finding objects
     matching shapes on their list would require application of knowledge and observation skills.
     Documenting findings through pictures or drawings would cater to different learning styles. We
   included an analysis component, encouraging students to consider why objects have certain
   shapes. This would deepen their understanding of shapes. Students would present their findings,
   practicing communication skills and allowing for peer learning. We included a reflection
   component, where students would articulate the importance of understanding shapes in daily life,
   appreciating the practical relevance of their learning.
            In designing this task, we aimed to create an engaging, interactive, and meaningful learning
   experience. We wanted to encourage critical thinking, creativity, and effective communication,
   going beyond rote learning. We believe this task aligns with the DepEd Competency and will
   enhance students’ ability to recognize and categorize shapes in their environment. We look
   forward to seeing students embark on their “Shape Hunt” and share their findings.

Specific Objectives :
   1. Students will search for and photograph different objects in the school environment based on
      their shapes.
   2. Students will categorize the photographed objects according to their shape.
   3. Students will create a collage using the photographs, grouping them based on the shape of the
      objects.
   4. Students will write a brief description for each category in their collage, explaining why the
      objects were grouped together.
      5. Students will present their collage to the class, explaining their process and findings.
       Students will be divided into groups and given a list of different shapes. They will then explore
the school environment to find and photograph objects that match the shapes on their list. Each group
will categorize their photographed objects based on their shapes. Using these photographs, students
will create a “Shape Collage”. Each shape will have its own section in the collage, with a brief
description explaining the grouping. Upon completion, each group will present their collage,
discussing their process, findings, and the significance of shapes in daily life.

   V. Reflection
          As a group, we began by thoroughly examining the CG of the DepEd. We wanted to fully
understand the competency we were tasked to address. It became clear that for Grade III students, the
ability to recognize, categorize, and visually represent shapes in their environment was a crucial skill.
This realization was the starting point of our journey to create an engaging and effective learning task.
        Our brainstorming sessions led us to the idea of a “Shape Collage”. We felt that this hands-on
activity would not only help students understand shapes better but also enhance their creativity and
teamwork skills. We envisioned our students actively exploring their environment, their eyes keenly
searching for shapes, their hands busy capturing these shapes through photographs. We saw them
huddled together, categorizing their findings, and meticulously arranging their photographs to create
their collages. We imagined the sense of accomplishment they would feel as they see their collages
taking shape, each photograph a testament to their hard work and keen observation skills. In addition
to the collage creation, we also incorporated a presentation aspect to the task. We believed that this
would provide an opportunity for students to improve their communication skills and boost their
confidence. It would also allow them to articulate their learning process, share their findings, and
reflect on the importance of shapes in their daily life.
         Our aspiration is that this task will not only make learning about shapes an engaging and
memorable experience for the students but also instill in them a lasting understanding of the
importance of shapes in our daily life. By actively participating in this task, we believe students will
gain a deeper appreciation for the world around them, seeing it through the lens of shapes. We eagerly
anticipate the creativity and insight that will be reflected in their “Shape Collages”, and we are excited
to witness the growth and learning this task will undoubtedly foster.

         Beth Hebert’s article, “Portfolio Assessment: Children Talk About Their Own Learning,”
  advocates for portfolio assessments in schools as a more comprehensive way to evaluate student
  learning. The article highlights the benefits of portfolio assessments, especially in promoting
  student involvement in their learning process.
       Hebert emphasizes the value of qualitative information about a child’s learning, rather than
just standardized testing scores. This viewpoint is supported by the story of Tim, a second-grade
student, who could express his learning progress through his portfolio. This example illustrates the
potential of portfolio assessment to help students reflect on their learning journey.
       However, the article doesn’t discuss the potential challenges of portfolio assessments, such
as the time and resources required for teachers and students to create and review portfolios. It also
doesn’t offer specific strategies for schools to effectively conduct portfolio assessments.
         Moreover, the article could have delved deeper into how portfolio assessments can be
combined with other forms of assessment for a more comprehensive evaluation of a student’s
learning. While Tim’s story demonstrates the benefits of portfolio assessments, it’s just one
example and may not reflect all students’ experiences.
        In conclusion, Hebert’s article makes a strong case for portfolio assessments in schools.
However, a more thorough discussion on the practicalities, potential challenges, and integration
with other forms of assessment would have enhanced the article. Despite these shortcomings, the
article contributes to the conversation about effective assessment practices in education and
prompts important discussion about supporting student learning.
DepEd Order No. 8,O Series of 2015 and DepEd Order No. 12, Series of 2020
       DepEd Order No. 8, s. 2015 introduces a comprehensive assessment system that evaluates
students based on their understanding and application of knowledge and skills. This is a significant
shift towards a more holistic assessment of student learning.
       The introduction of floor levels is a thoughtful addition, acting as a safety net for students.
However, it’s important to balance maintaining students’ motivation and preventing undue stress.
The Kindergarten grading system, which uses checklists, individual notes, and student
performance portfolios, provides a more holistic view of a child’s development.
       However, the system could benefit from more consistency across grading components. For
instance, while first and second-grade students are assessed on writing, performance assignments,
  and quarterly assessments, the grading components for other grades are not clearly defined. A
  more unified approach could ensure fairness and comparability of grades.
          The steps for calculating the final grade are clearly outlined, but this process may be too
  complicated for students and parents to understand. A brief description or visual representation
  could promote transparency and help students and parents better understand how grades are
  calculated.
          The system’s approach to promoting and retaining students is fair. Remedial classes are
  recommended for students who do not meet expectations in specific learning areas. However,
  students who continue to struggle may need additional support, such as tutoring or learning
  support services.
          In conclusion, the grading system in DepEd Order No. 8, s. 2015 is well-structured and
  thorough. It provides clear guidelines for assessment and grading, while considering the individual
  needs and progress of learners. However, simplifying the process of calculating final grades and
  providing additional support for struggling students could enhance the system.
          Reflective teaching is a key aspect of education, enhancing teaching quality and learning.
   It involves teachers analyzing their teaching methods and classroom environment to improve
   effectiveness and student learning outcomes.
          Lastly, reflective teaching contributes to a positive learning culture. When teachers model
   reflective practices, they demonstrate the value of self-assessment, critical thinking, and
   continuous learning. This can inspire students to adopt similar reflective practices in their own
   learning, fostering a culture of self-improvement and lifelong learning.
