reflection about summative and formative assessment

Last meeting I learned about formative and summative assessment. Formative assessment usually on going process in the class, and summative assessment in last process in the class. Homework is one of the example for formative assessment. Homework refers to task assigned to students by their teachers to be completed outside of class. Homework helps students to review the material in the class and for the teacher its can be one of assessment for students. Teacher can know that students understand or still confuse. Students also can discuss with their friends. Teacher must creative to give homework, so students not bored with the assignment.

quizzzzzzzzzz??? owh owh owh

My friends, before We have seen it's not what the assessment and how to assess? It turned out that the assessment there are 2 types of assessments, namely: Formative assessment and summative assessment . Formative assessment is an assessment carried out during the process of learning takes place while the assessment is an summative assessment  seen at the end of the lesson learning process takes place.

 Now, I would like to discuss one formative assessment is a type of quiz (pre test and post test). Why am I discussing this? Because when i senior high school, teachers often hold quizzes or commonly referred to as daily tests. Apparently after I learned PETA, I know that the quiz is an assessment that has enormous benefits in the learning process takes place. Anyone know why the quiz is very useful? Quiz is taking an important role in the conduct of assessment on students because of the quizzes or daily tests conducted to evaluate teachers and students in teaching and learning. Teachers can find out where the subject matter that is still weak and must be deepened, the teacher know if the instructions given so far has been successful or not, and the students also know the ability of each to evaluate where the material that should be studied again, where the material that is already understood.

The things that make a quiz so is one form of assessment is very good in teaching and learning.
So, do not be afraid again ... yes if there are quizzes hehehheehe

Umi Salamah_E-Reflection-Formative & Summative Assesment

Summative or Formative Assesment??

PPRI No 19 In 2005 NSP Pasal 1 ayat 17 show that Assessment is an activity that search, collect, and processing the information to achieve the aims of learning process.  And then the parts of assessment are test, evaluation, measurement, and score.

Assessment consist of two characteristics, they are formative and summative assessment.  Formative assessment is a process assessment which dominant with task or problem in going process. There is revision or can be better base on condition. For example of formative assessment are open question, homework, quiz, post test, and pre test. Whereas the summative is a assessment that make a grade or position students, such as Final Examination, UN, presentation, exhibition, midterm exam. Actually, the different between formative and summative assessment are based on time and purpose of assignment especially. Because sometime there is test that can included of characteristic formative or summative.

For example the test that include between them are quiz. Quiz can given by teacher when ongoing process to know how is far understanding students after explaining.  It’s a formative assessment. But, quiz could be summative assessment when teacher use it to get a score from students or in special time without see ongoing process in class. It’s also for paper and pencil test.

Other example that includes formative and summative assessment is a presentation test.  Presentation in formative assessment can do after finish one material, but in summative assessment can do for final exam. This sample has happened in my campus at Sampoerna School of Education. And then there is rubric for presentation, in order to get an objective score and effective. So, assessment can give teacher for students based on purpose, time, and understanding students.

Since the first I become a student at SSE, I get many experience in here. Started of the learning and the teaching of my lecturers with various methods learning them. From the matter that, I am sure happy, because I can follow a learning which that learning not I get when I study in senior high school, secondary school, or elementary school. But in SSE, I can get it. The matter which that become interesting for me, because during I study in senior high school, secondary school or elementary school, my teachers use assessment with homework, practice answer the question from the book, and mid test and exam. But, in SSE, I found it with different of last my school. In SSE, I become know about round robin, 2 stay 3 stray, write reflection in blog, project and still many other. So, now I know that an assessment that not only homework, practice answer question from book, mid test and final test, but any other way to do assess to student.

I also have an experience about an assessment, which the matter that I get of my last school experience. From my school experience, I and my friends in the pair teaching when become teacher assistent, I and my friends use round robin, when do assess the students in the class, and apparently the matter that become a new method to students in the school there. I see the students in there feel happy when they do round robin. So, I become interest to use round robin, and I interest to use when I had a teacher. And I also interest with 2 stay 3 stray, why I become interest to 2 stay 3 stray, because I see that can be use to help when I had become a teacher, which the matter that can be help the students more understanding to materials in the learning, and the students can be sharing one other. But also, I must be study hard to learn how become a great teacher and be able make an assessment with can fullfill context materials in the learning. And the matter that also I am studying in the course PETA. So, I hope, which after I learn PETA, I can take many learning of this course.

Section B

SUMMATIVE AND FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT

        all this time i just  know a kinds  of like a evaluation , the presentation, class participation , paper and a pencil test, reflection , daily test , UN , UTS , exhibition , and others . and now i have  know if the  type of assessment that I mentioned above is only divided into two types of assessment IS SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT and FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT. where Formative Assessment conducted at the beginning to the end of the lesson or ongoing process and Formative assessment of outcomes assessment process by ignoring the process, or the end process. For example, UTS, presentation, evaluation, Exhibition is a type of summative assessment, while Participation class, Deuteronomy, daily reflection is a type of formative assessment, paper and pencil test, is entered into the two types of assessment itself, for example, if in use to measure the students' understanding level so this is Formative assessment i but if in use for the final assessment is summative. In my opinion, we as future teachers will have to use both types of assessment in the evaluation. Because the assessment was very good in my opinion, because we can assess many aspects. and we must prepare the assessment rubric before doing the assessment, because that assessment can be objective..^_^

Oke... this is a rubric of debate. One of assessment tools can use this one. Debate is a way to know students' understanding and can improve they critical thinking. We have known about summative and formative assessment. The different between formative and summative, formative is on going process. We as teacher do the assessment when teaching and learning process. But summative is like evaluation after we have done finish the material. Both of them can used as feedback for next session. Back to debate for assess students. Well, in mathematics, we know one of goal of learning mathematics is students can improve their critical thinking because it important for them when they faced in daily life.

UN as a Summative Assessment

At the beginning of the class, I was confused by the two kind of assessment that is formative and summative, because I did not know yet what kind of assessment of them are. I’m absent of the previous meeting about it. And I just realized that I really missing the content. Then, we have to write the differences in a group. Yeay! Thank You God. By the discussion, I get the point of the two kind of assessment. I love the activities, and that activity is really effective in teaching and learning.

Summative assessment is a assessment that held at the end of the whole process in academic period. The purpose of this assessment is to measure students understanding at the end of period. The example: pencil and paper test at final test or mid test; final semester project; final essay; etc. In my opinion the kind of assessment like this has to be very clear and complete for assessing the students. Why? Because this assessment just given once at the end of period and the score will have a huge affect for achievement. So, the preparations have to ready well such as the rubrics, question. They have to be very clear, complete, and complex because it will measure students of the whole period.

One sample of the summative assessment at Indonesia that didn’t agree by me is Ujian Nasional (UN). This kind of assessment being measurement of students for three years, whereas every semester students have being assessed by final test. Back to the purpose of the assessment its self, It is for measuring students achievement for a period, and when it has been complete, reevaluate students is not needed. I think UN is not really appropriate and effective, just imagine that students have already test then they have to repeat again. If the purpose is just for equivalence the education at Indonesia, that’s fine, I mean the score is not being focus of the students’ permit determinant. At the facts, UN being something percent of students’ permit determinant. OK, just take it as a comment for education at Indonesia.

Going back to the summative assessment, we really have to be careful for preparing it.
