Are all the assessment task aligned to the learning outcome? - Yes all the assessment tasks of my resources teacher are aligned on the learning outcome objective they have. 2. What are possible consequences if teacher’s assessment tasks are not aligned to learning outcome/s? Does this affect assessment result? How? - The possible consequences if teachers assessment task are not aligned to learning outcomes is it may not be possible to be achieved the class. The effect of assessment results cannot be measure what the students learned from the lesson because it was not aligned in the intended learning outcomes. 3. Why should assessment tasks be aligned to the learning outcomes? - The assessment task should be aligned to the learning outcomes to attain the objectives of the lesson , And also to have an organized lesson and it will achieve only if the intended learning outcome are aligned in assessment learning process. REFLECT Reflect on past assessment you have been trough. Were they all aligned with what your teacher taught with learning outcomes? - As I reflect on the past assessments that I had been through, I remember all assessment that is given to us is aligned in the learning outcomes of our teacher. How dis this affect your performance? As a future teacher, what lesson do you learn from this past experience and from this observation? - It did not affect my performance because I remember all the assessment that I received was aligned on the intended learning outcomes of our teacher. - I learned that it is important to applied the steps in making the lesson plan . If we already know the steps on how to make the lesson plan then it will no longer be difficult for us to make a good intended learning outcomes that aligned to our assessment learning.
