a.) Enhancing students learning - through: clarifying instructional objectives for them, showing students
strengths and weaknesses, providing information on personal -social development, enhancing students
motivation and indicating where teaching might be modified.These can be achieved through day-to-day
tests and feedback and integrated periodic tests.
b.) Reports to parents/ guardians - Grading and reporting systems also inform parents and guardians of
students on the progress of their wards.Likewise, grades and reports communicate objectives to
parents, so they can help promote learning and likewise, communicate how well objectives were met,so
parents can better plan.
c.) Administrative and guidance uses - Grades and report cards should promote and enhance learning
rather than frustrate and discourage students.
•Norm-referenced refers to how a student's score compares to other students, while criterion-
referenced refers to how a student's score compares to a criterion, such as a predetermined standard or
goal.
3. How do you compute grades in accordance with the current DepEd policy on grading system. Give
an example for a subject in Grade 6.
Mathematics 6
4. Give a list of do's and don'ts when reporting students progress to both students and parents.
Do's Don'ts
Do help students establish and maintain positive and Don’t believe that students and parents know exactly
healthy peer relationships within your school how to function within your unique school setting.
community and help parents understand how they can
best support their children.
5. If you get high grades or high scores does it follows that you learned a lot? Explain your answer.
• Yes because if I didn't learn a lot im not going to get a high grades or high scores. Getting a high grades
or high scores is hard but if you studied and learn all the lessons you will going to get it.
B. Research on:
1. The averaging and cumulative grading systems. How are grades computed in each grading system?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each grading system?
•The advantage is it allows teachers to give weight to assessments later in the year that more
accurately measure student growth toward course objectives. Disadvantages are that students can have
a difficult time tracking their progress, or knowing, for example, how well they must do on a test to keep
their grade above a certain percentage.
2. School practices on marks or grades used. Do they use letter grades? What do they mean?or 1,2,3,
etc.? or 75,78,90. What are advantages and disadvantages of each? Which is most meaningful to
parents?
• School used a letter grades. The advantages of a letter grades is historically, letter grades have served
as a tool to rate educational intelligence. By looking at the progression of a student's grades over time,
people are able to determine whether or not the students are developing skills in certain areas. The
disadvantages letter grade systems might feel good, but they do not accurately reflect a student's
performance in an exam since they tend to group students into bands. This means that a student who
has managed to scrape a 91 is put on the same level as a student who achieved a perfect score.
Not Creating a Welcoming Atmosphere - With all the logistical preparation and mounds of papers to be
distributed, it’s easy to overlook the importance of establishing an inviting atmosphere when families
arrive.
Being Too Teacher-Centered - If you haven’t done it before, consider inviting students to their own
conferences! It’s a great way to ensure that conversations remain student-focused, and it creates shared
ownership among everyone participating.
Not Planning in Advance - I usually create a checklist of items I’d like to discuss with parents weeks
before the conference actually takes places. Behavior, homework habits, reading skills and class
participation often make their way onto my fall conference agenda.
Focusing on Problems, Not Solutions - If a student is struggling with behavior or falling behind
academically, make sure to communicate these concerns in advance of conferences. That way, your
time with families can be focused on brainstorming solutions and building rapport – a much more
challenging task without face-to-face dialogue.
