Evaluation of Classroom Tests
- For this activity you will need to locate one of your
teacher-made classroom tests that you have administered in the
past or plan to administer in the future. After locating a
teacher-made test, carefully review the checklist found on page
155 of your study guide, then review your test "through the eyes of
an ESOL student" by completing the checklist. (Note: You may also
use a publisher produced test if a teacher-made test is
unavailable. A teacher-made test is preferable, however)
- Create a list indicating the strengths and weaknesses of your
test in terms of the items on the checklist. Provide specific
examples of test items from your classroom test to support your
response. For example, if you indicate that test items are written
clearly, provide an example of a test item that substantiates your
point.
Submit your response to the facilitator.
