1. How portfolio assessment differ from traditional testing and from other authentic assessment
methods?
Answer.Portfolio assessment assess the student's ability to apply and use what they've learned in class,
and it's also been widely used in the field of teacher education, where it plays an important role in
transforming an in-service or pre-service trainee teacher into a trained teacher, and it's used to track his
or her overall performance over time. Unlike typical assessments, a portfolio provides insight into the
child's progress and highlights the child's strengths and flaws. Traditional evaluation does not provide
feedback to students, however both performance and portfolio assessment do.
2. Discuss its importance of portfolio assessment, construct an analytic rubrics for evaluating your own
output.
A portfolio assessment is a collection of student works that are associated with standards you are
required to learn. This collection of work is often gathered over a long period of time to reflect what you
have been taught as well as what you have learned.
"A purposeful collection of student work that exhibits the student’s efforts, progress and achievements
in one or more areas. The collection must include student participation in selecting contents, the criteria
for selection, the criteria for judging merit and evidence of student self-reflection." (Paulson, Meyer
1991)
A portfolio is thus a living, evolving collection of a student's work, with each addition carefully chosen by
the student for a specific purpose that he or she will explain. The portfolio's overall goal is to allow the
student to show others his or her development and learning. The most valuable aspect of portfolios is
that they engage students in the learning process and assessment.
Considering the purpose of the portfolio, it should be determined which evidence should be collected,
who will collect the works, how often they will be collected, and how they will be assessed. Consulting
students during the selection of the studies which will be filled in a portfolio is important since it enable
students to have responsibility and possession feelings. Lastly the purpose of portfolio is mentioned
explicitly and then, assessment criteria of the each item in portfolio need to beexplained. It is very
important to determine the criteria for assessing the portfolio. Because an assessment criterion allows
students to recognize, and select work that is considered high quality. It also allows and encourages
discussions among teachers, students, and other concerning the outcomes and quality of outcomes.
Assessment criteria which have been used to determine the quality of the student’s performance should
be clear and easy to understand. This is quite important in terms of student to assess his own works and
to be able to fulfill his weaknesses.
