AFFECTIVE LEARNING OUTCOMES

3 Methods of assessing learning outcomes

Teacher observation
students self- reports
peer rating
3 CONSIDERATION WHEN ASSESSING AFFECT
According to Mcmillan 2001

1. Emotions and feelings

2. Use several approaches
3. Result
EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS
It is not stable of young children and during early adolescence
because most of them are unpredictable.

It is advisable as much as possible.

Do not rely on a single approach because it has a limitation.
THE RESULT
What will you use to assess your own students to find the result
of their exams, reporting's, and etc.?
Individual or group result
TEACHER OBSERVATION

It is to make a systematic record on the observation about

the presence or absence of affective outcomes.
STEPS IN USING TEACHER’S OBSERVATION

• Determine in advance the specific behavior related to

the targets.
• Develop a list of positive and negative behaviors.
• Decide the type of observation you want to use.
TWO METHODS IN USING TEACHER OBSERVATION

1. Unstructured observation
2. Structured observation
UNSTRUCTURED OBSERVATION

- know as open-ended observation

FS
Recording observation
Note Taking
Diary
STRUCTURED OBSERVATION

- It involves the utilization of checklist, rating scale, and

sometimes rubrics.
yes or no
present or absent
always, often, sometimes, seldom, and never
STUDENT SELF- REPORT

traits.
Checklist
Peer Rating
