, QUESTION 1
Learner assessments are important so that teachers know how much learners understand from
their daily teachings. First, the teacher sets out the learning objectives for each lesson. The teacher will
know whether the objectives have been achieved by giving learners daily class activities which will be
assessed before the end of the lesson. Once the objectives have been achieved, the teacher can measure if
and how her/his students have performed.
Read the extract below, then answer the questions:
1.1 Describe the concept pre-assessment. (3)
Answer: Pre-assessment is the practice of evaluating students' existing knowledge, skills, and understanding
before commencing a new lesson or learning unit. Its purpose is to enable educators to customize their
teaching approaches based on individual student needs, ensuring a more tailored and effective learning
experience.
1.2 Why is pre-assessment valuable in a Creative Arts classroom? Give reasons for your answer and give
examples to support your answer. (3)
Answer: Pre-assessment holds significance in a Creative Arts classroom due to its ability to uncover students'
diverse backgrounds and prior experiences. This insight empowers teachers to craft lessons that resonate with
individual learners, enhancing engagement. For instance, in a music class, pre-assessment can unveil students'
music preferences and prior knowledge, allowing the selection of relevant musical pieces and activities.
1.3 Not all pre-assessment activities are functional. What do you have to avoid when creating pre-
assessment activities? (2)
Answer: When designing pre-assessment activities, it's essential to steer clear of excessive complexity or
lengthiness. Optimal activities are clear, concise, and aligned with specific learning objectives. Furthermore, it's
crucial to avoid disclosing excessive information about upcoming content, as this could compromise the
authenticity of the assessment.
1.4 How will you assess creative growth in your learners? (2)
Answer: I intend to evaluate creative growth in my learners through a blend of qualitative and quantitative
methods. Qualitatively, I'll analyze students' artistic portfolios to discern patterns of progression and
experimentation over time. Quantitatively, I'll employ carefully designed rubrics to assess distinct creative
dimensions like originality, technical proficiency, and the emotive quality of their work.
1.5 Discuss any three (3) assessment types. (5)
• Formative Assessment: Formative assessment occurs during instruction to provide ongoing
