all the same and shows that they can all perform normally in the test. This shows
that the test is reliable.
Strengths
First of all, the test has fulfilled all the criteria and the principles of language
assessment. This shows that it is a good test. The place chosen, which is the
classroom, is conducive and suitable to conduct a test. The lighting was good.
The test is quite interesting because the teacher includes pictures in the test.
Therefore, the pupils not only see words but also pictures that can help them
answer the test.
Weakness and suggestion
After the test, we found out that the test items is a little bit difficult for some of
the pupils. It is more suitable to a high level of learners. For the weak pupils, the
difficulty of the test item should be decreased a little bit so that it suits the
learners. There are only few pupils that can answer this test item. Therefore, to
improve the test items, first we must find out the level of the pupils. After that, we
can create a test item that suits the pupils. However, we cant make it easy
because it will make the pupils feel boring. In a class with mixed ability pupils like
this, average difficulty is just nice because both low and high achievers can
answer it. There wont be a big gap between their results.
