E. Formative assessment is “when the cook tastes the soup while summative assessment is when the guest tastes the
soup.” Do you agree? Why or why not?
Answers: Yes I agree. Because before the cook is going to serve the soup he made it is necessary for him to taste the
dish so that he may be able to know the right amount of savory is in the soup before serving to the guest/customer.

F. “All tests are forms of assessment, but not all assessments are tests.” Which definitions of assessment given in F
support this statement?
Answers: A test is a form of measurement used to measure a learner’s learning at a specific period of time. But
assessment is a procedure that teachers used to determine the effectiveness of their teaching by interviewing,
observations, and reviewing student’s works.

G. Here are how authors distinguish measurement, assessment and evaluation:

 Evaluation is the process of making judgments based on criteria and evidence.
 Assessment is the process of documenting knowledge, skills, attitudes and beliefs usually in measurable terms.
The goal of assessment is to make improvements, as opposed to simply being judged.
 In an educational context, assessment is the process of describing, collecting, recording, scoring, and
interpreting information about learning.
 Measurement refers to the process by which the attributes or dimensions of some physical objects are
determined with the exception of IQ or attitudes.
 Assessment is a process by which information is obtained relative to some known objective or goal. A test is a
special form of assessment.
 Evaluation is a process designed to provide information to help one make a judgement about a given situation.

Based on the notes given above, distinguish among measurement, assessment, and evaluation.
Answers: Measurement describes the attributes of certain objects in terms of quantity. Assessment refers to the
process of obtaining information through gathering data, scoring and interpreting information to determine what is
need to improve in student’s learning. Evaluation is a process that provides information to make judgment of the
given situation.
