1. INTRODUCTION
This document serves to highlight issues on assessment in Technology in the Intermediate and Senior Phase. Emphasis is on school based assessment.
The document should be read/ utilized in conjunction with Technology National assessment guideline document. Therefore the purpose of this document is not to repeat any part of the national assessment guidelines which are based on the assessment policy of February 2007 but merely to expand on issues not clearly stated yet crucial for micro planning of learner assessment.
2. Technology Education at a Glance is:
An ability to solve technology problems by investigating, designing, developing. Evaluating as well as communicating effectively in their own and other languages by using different modes;
A fundamental understanding of and ability to apply technological knowledge, skills and values, working as individuals and as group members, in a range of technological contexts;
A critical understanding of the interrelationship between Technology, society, the economy and the environment.
Learners learn to manage the technological resources at their disposal when developing products, and they impact they have on the environment and human rights.
Learners are provided with an opportunity to interact with business, institutions, various industries and mines that help them to adapt to changing economic and environmental realities.
3. TECHNOLOGY LEARNING OUTCOMES and ASSESSMENT STANDARDS
The Learning Outcomes and their respective Assessment Standards are structured such that, integration is unavoidable. The Learning Outcomes and their Assessment Standards play a role in the development of assessment tasks and activities. The assessment activities should consist of all the skills, knowledge and values embedded in the Learning Outcomes and Assessment Standards. The three Learning Outcomes are complementary to each other.
INTEGRATIONIntegration is the process of using different Learning Outcomes/Assessment Standards to enhance the process of teaching, learning and assessment. Integration promotes holistic learning and demonstrates the crosscutting nature of one or more Learning Areas and Learning Outcomes. Assessment should only focus on core Learning Outcomes and Assessment Standards.
2
4. CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT (CASS)
Outcomes Based Assessment (OBA) requires the use of tools that appropriately assess learner achievement and encourage lifelong learning skills. Continuous assessment is considered the best model to assess outcomes of learning and teaching throughout the system and enable improvements to be made in the learning and teaching process. It must be used to support the learner developmentally and to feed back into teaching and learning and should not be interpreted merely as the accumulation of a series of traditional test results.
CASS is informal and formal, but it is formal tasks or activities that are recorded for purposes of progression and promotion. Informal assessment is very important; therefore it should be used to inform formal assessment. It is used for formative purposes to support teachers in their daily planning and to assist teachers in making professional judgment on learner performance. Informal Assessment evidence should be recorded as additional activities. During teaching and learning, practical exercises should be done in the form of resource tasks and assessed informally.
5. PLANNING FORMAL ASSESSMENT
An important part of planning is to decide at the Learning Programme Level what type of assessment will be used, and decide on the range of tasks to be assessed.
Each school should have a School Assessment Programme, which is a compilation of all the grade assessment plans. Each school should also have a Teacher Assessment Plan, which is derived from the Work Schedules and indicate the details of assessment per grade. Districts are at liberty to begin with a focus area of their choice unless the Province indicates otherwise. In Technology the assessment programme is included in the Work Schedule and the school should follow the stipulated Assessment Programme.
Technology should have four formal tasks per year in grades 4-8, and 3 in grade 9. A task refers to an assessment activity that is designed to assess a range of skills and competencies. Each task should consist of a research or assignment, a project, a test and a case study. The tasks should reflect research skills, analytic skills, designing skills, making or development skills, management skills, communication skills, evaluation and presentation skills. The following section describes evidence expected from the various forms/types of assessment that could be used by the educators to assess learning achievement.

Forms of assessment EvidenceResearch Research report, questionnaires,
surveys, observation sheets, case studies, interviews,
Assignment Practical tasks, drawings, acquisition of knowledge, skills development, etc.
Case Study Simulations, observation, interviews, etc.
Project Project portfolios: This is a presentation of the Design Process using multimedia.
Test /Examinations Written, practical, oral, audio-visual Tests are to be incorporated
within projects. Tests can be done individually
or in a group. Practical tests are used to
assess the manipulation skills of activities.
Tests should be used to assess overall understanding of skills, knowledge, and values.
Tests can be used to validate projects.
6. FURTHER EXPLANATION OF ASSESSMENT FORMS IN TECHNOLOGY
Project
A project in Technology is any exercise which has the following elements:
Be problem-orientated with opportunities to analyze problems or case studies.
An investigation Practical exercises Comprehensive and open-ended Tackled without close supervision, but with assessor guidance and
support.
Tasks and activities for this form of assessment will require learners to investigate, design, make, evaluate and communicate Technological solutions.Projects can involve individual or a group of learners. The assessor directs the choice of the project, usually by providing the learner with a topic or the brief for the investigation. A project can have the following forms of activities:
4
Assignments Research Excursions Site visits Demonstrations Exhibitions Case studies
Assignment
An Assignment is a problem solving exercise with clear guidelines and a specified length. It is more structured and less open-ended than projects, but they do not necessarily involve strict adherence to a prescribed procedure and they are not concerned exclusively with manual skills. They include short exercises used formatively to assess learners’skills development.
Test
Tests could be used for summative or formative purposes. They usually consist of a range of questions. Learners are required to respond to questions within a specified time. Tests are usually used to assess the recall of information and cognitive skills such as problem solving or analysis etc.
Case Study
Case studies are a detailed description of a specified situation. the situation can be real or simulated by the teacher. They can be taken from books, newspapers, magazines, videos or radios. Their purpose is to link real examples of Technology in the world outside to classroom activities. They can be used for either summative or formative purposes.
Research
A research involves the collection of data and / or information to solve a problem or to understand a particular set of circumstances. Learners should also process, present and use the information to solve the problem at hand.

7. MODERATION
It is a policy that moderation should be done per term in all grades, at school level, cluster level and district level. Moderation will be carried out to ensure that appropriate standards are maintained in the assessment process in the province. This will be done on a sample basis at the different levels of the process
According to the Assessment Policy of February 2007, continuous assessment should be moderated externally by professional support services within the guidelines set by the Provincial Education Department.
In Grades 4 - 8, CASS makes up 100% of the final Technology mark or level of achievement. In Grade 9 CASS makes up 75% of the final Technology mark or level of achievement and 25% comes from Common Task for Assessment (CTA) which will be used as a moderating tool for school based assessment.
8. STAGES OF MODERATION
LEVELS OF MODERATION
WHO MODERATES PORTFOLIOS TO BE MODERATED
SCHOOL PRINCIPAL/ HOD/ REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PRINCIPAL
ALL PORTFOLIOS should be submitted to the HOD and the HOD should sample according to the school assessment policy.
CLUSTER EDUCATORS/ CLUSTER LEADER (LEARNING AREA COMMITTEE CHAIR PERSON)/ DISTRICT CURRICULUM PERSONNEL
10 % OF LEARNERS’ PORTFOLIO PER SCHOOL(minimum of 5 if there are fewer than 50 learners in the learning area sampled from highest, average and lowest).
PROVINCE PROVINCIAL LEARNIG AREA CHAIR PERSONS/ THEIR REPRESENTATIVES
DETERMINED BY THE PROVINCIAL LEARNING AREAEXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
NATIONAL UMALUSI DETERMINED BY UMALUSI

9. MODUS OPERANDI
LEVEL 1: SCHOOL LEVELThis moderation should be conducted on an ongoing basis as tasks are
completed in the classroom situation.The moderation at school level should be conducted as follows:
All assessment tasks and tools must be moderated by HOD beforeadministered to the learners.
The learning area teacher marks tasks in red ink. The learning area head of department, Deputy Principal or Principal, must
then exercise further control in green ink. (THE SCHOOL MODERATING TEAM).
Comments, signature and a school stamp must appear on the moderated work. A school moderation tool (see annexure C) must be filled in and be submitted by the subject teacher during cluster moderation.
In school where there is no SMT member qualified in the learning area, arrangements with the neighbouring school can be made. If this is not possible done at cluster moderation by the learning area specialists.
Two copies of the mark schedule (see annexure B) must also be signed by the teacher, HOD and Principal
The number of learner portfolios to be presented for cluster moderation should be determined as follows:10% of learners’ portfolio must be prepared for moderation (minimum of 5 if there are fewer than 50 learners in the learning area sampled from highest, average and lowest).
LEVEL 2: CLUSTER LEVEL
Cluster moderation will take place according to the district CASS moderation schedule.
Each teacher brings along his/her master portfolio, required number of learner portfolios and two copies of the mark schedule
ROLE OF THE DCES INTERSEN
Coordinates CASS moderation plans/ programmes for the district for the year
Communicates the plans/ programmes to all circuit managers and schools
Ensures that the venues are booked and confirmed. Collates all the learning area reports

When selecting a material for a particular product, the first question you need to ask is: what materials are suitable for the product?
A material which melts at a low temperature, for example, would not be suitable for making a saucepan. Similarly, a material which absorbs water, would be unsuitable for making wellington boots.It is essential therefore, to choose material with appropriate properties.
Activity1Learners are asked to find out the meaning of the following terms:
Tension force Compression force Bending force Torsion force Shearing force
Remember to write down where you found the information. (sources)
Activity2Learners are asked to collect different types of materials (wood, textiles, plastics, metals, glass).They are helped to perform practical tests on them, to find out properties that cause their resistance to the different forces.
Activity3Learners are given a list of products. They are asked to identify:
Materials they are made of Properties of materials /
Suitability Processes undergone.

13. Steps in developing Rubrics
Examine the Assessment Standards that describe the task Ensure that the Skills, Knowledge and Values (SKV’s) that are assessed are specified in the activity. Set out the criteria in order of importance for all mark allocation Write thorough narrative descriptions for all levels Start with the descriptions of excellent work, poor work and intermediate/ middle levels, other levels will develop
smoothly from each extreme end Check if the rubric is in line with the Assessment Standards and the activity and revise if necessary.
