Assessment of Learning in Cognitive Domain by Rose Ann Tialang


This topic is focused on acquainting future teachers with methods and techniques of measuring learning in cognitive domain. According to Bloom, 1956, “the cognitive domain deals w/ the recall or recognition knowledge and the development of intellectual activities and skills.”
                This topic is very important and helpful for the teachers on how to measure and assess the learning levels of their students. By this, the teachers themselves may calculate the knowledge and the development of the students by assessing their intellectual abilities and skills in school.
                This topic also helps the teacher on how to prepare their assessment in cognitive learning, in which the teacher will prepare his/her test for the student in whatever type of the test his/her student are fitted.
                There’s an advantage and disadvantage of this topic. The advantage is that, the teacher will know immediately after the test will improve with his teaching strategy and the disadvantage, for the part of the teacher, it’s a hassle to check all the papers for the result of the test, but if they loved their profession they can be done it well w/ no bias at all.
