WHAT IS ASSESSMENT?
-It is the process of making some evaluation; the act of assessing.
WHAT IS CONSTRUCTIVIST THEORY?
Constructivist theory is a theory to explain on how knowledge is
constructed in the human being when information comes into contact with
existing knowledge that has been developed by experiences. Constructivism as a
theory of learning has existed for over one hundred years but has no been
widely accepted or applied in public schools.this theory is just a posed of
behavioral theory.
WHAT IS TECHNOLOGY-SUPPORTED LEARNING?
It is used to encourage students especially in
facilitating student centered learning activities. It is more than
technology enhance instruction. It recognizes that learning is supported in
many different ways, even if there is no formal teaching involve.
Students study and learn based on the way they are tested. The type of
assessment anticipated appears to influence how and what they learn. therefore,
the quickest way to change the way students learn is to change the way learning
is assessed.
In a technology-supported classroom, the student learns from and with the
technology. Technology is seen as a source of information that the students
learn from in the same way that the teacher are the source of information.. the
students master facts from the concepts from technology and with the aid of
technology.
Reflection:
It is said that traditional-paper-and
pencil are not adequate to assess learning in a constructivist technology
supported learning. In assessing student learning we only not depend on
the skills they have(process-oriented performance based) but also for the
output which is the (product-oriented performance based) assessment. With the
help of the scoring rubrics which contain the criteria and the levels of
performance we can smoothly assess their performance.
