Measurement and Evaluation System

 In Philippines they use some grading system as measurement by using:
  •  30% to Written Works composed of unit tests, long tests, formal theme papers, book reports, research outputs, literary outputs, notebooks and other minor academic tasks
  • 40% to Performance Tasks composed of quarterly major oral performances and major written outputs.
  •  5% to Recitation
  •  5% to Portfolio which is a collation of all the formative and summative tasks of the students.
  •  20% to Quarter Assessment, that is the departmentalized quartely exams.

For evaluation they use formative and summative assessments. The former keeps track of the development of the understanding of the students in every subject matter. They come in the form of short quizzes, worksheets, board exercises, drills. The latter are final evaluation per unit in the form of unit tests and major performances. In K12 curriculum they applied communicative techniques and BBLP (Brain-Based Learning Plan) strategies to support the 10 curriculum.
Teaching Methods

 Communicative techniques often used to address the five macro language skills - reading, listening, speaking, viewing and writing and BBLP strategies is a Brain-based education strategies which the purposeful  is to engage strategies based on principles that derived from solid scientific research. It emphasizes how the brain learns naturally and is based on what we currently know about the actual structure and function of the human brain at varying developmental stages.
