Use of Digital Assessments how to Utilize Digital Bloom to Accommodate Online Learning and Assessments?

Abstract

As there has always been a concern regarding creation of reliable online assessments by educators, this academic article provides an idea for creating of online assignments for the inexperienced assessment literate teachers. This proposed model will show how to utilize Bloom's model to create digital online assignments using ICT tools. The inspiration of this proposed model is taken from a combination of Benjamin Bloom's Taxonomy and Andrew Churches Digital Bloom's Taxonomy, as both focuses on the teaching and learning environment. Due to the pandemic 2020 approximate estimation of 87% of world's student's population (McGee, 2013; UNESCO, 2020) faced the issue of school closure, which gave a rise to online teaching, learning. Therefore, this paper examines the need of creation of reliable assessments which caters to the different students' abilities. By this proposed model and with the Integration of Information and Communication Technology with Benjamin Bloom's Cognitive Domain, this article will add a new dimension towards the online assessment. The main objective of this article is to utilize the common language and the terminology from the Blooms taxonomy for assessing the students depending on their needs and abilities to achieve the targeted learning outcomes.

Digital Assessment Literacy: The Need of Online Assessment Literacy and Online Assessment Literate Educators

“…The focus of this research is to present how the online assessment literacy could support in identifying the needs of online assessment with help of Bloom's Model in connection with the digital Bloom's taxonomy. This Model is integrated with Information communication technology tools for the online assessment literate educators to cater to the needs of different ability students (Husain, 2021). The original Bloom's Taxonomy was actually designed for assessment purpose.…”

Teacher's Readiness to Implement Digital Assessment Activities

“…Năng lực đánh giá số là một phạm trù mới so với đánh giá truyền thống, giáo viên cần cập nhật để phù hợp với môi trường học tập trực tuyến và các phương pháp tiếp cận sư phạm của thế kỷ 21 [12]. Việc đào tạo kỹ năng đánh giá số cho giáo viên sẽ nâng cao hiệu quả giảng dạy của họ [33]. Từ đó, nghiên cứu đề xuất năng lực đánh giá số của giáo viên là khả năng sử dụng các kiến thức và nguyên tắc đánh giá để thực hiện hiệu quả các quá trình thu thập, diễn giải, ghi chép thông tin và đưa ra phản hồi về thành tích, quá trình học tập của người học với sự hỗ trợ của nền tảng công nghệ số.…”

“…Assessment is an integral part of any training program to assess the effectiveness of the teaching‐learning strategy employed, measure, track, and understand the student's capabilities, and evaluate their progress 5 . The assessment method has evolved over several years from the formal and structured summative assessment to the ongoing and flexible formative assessment.…”

The choice of the assessment method depends on what is assessed and why it should be assessed, and the choice of assessment tool depends on how valid, reliable, and flexible it is?…”
