Assessment Practices of Teachers Implementing the Philippines and Singapore Elementary Mathematics Curriculum
Abstract: Assessment Practices of Teachers Implementing the Philippines and Singapore Elementary Mathematics Curriculum. Objective: This study compared the assessment practices of purposively selected Filipino teachers in public schools implementing the national elementary mathematics curriculum with those in private schools implementing the Singapore mathematics curriculum in the Philippines. The researcher used document analysis, interviews, and classroom observations for 32 elementary mathematics teachers to determine their assessment practices. Triangulation was done to ensure data validity to fulfill the studys purpose. The results reveal that there are similarities and differences in the assessment practices of elementary teachers using Philippines and Singapore Elementary Mathematics curriclum. However, the study did not test if Filipino elementary learners differ in their performance in the national assessments given to all learners in public and private schools. Hence, the study recommended that future analysis be made on how Filipino elementary learners differ in their performance in mathematics, considering their differences in the curriculum they are exposed to.Keywords: assessment practices, elementary mathematics teachers, mathematics curriculum.Abstrak: Praktik Asesmen Guru yang Melaksanakan Kurikulum Matematika Dasar Filipina dan Singapura.
