Abstract
Education was forced to modify face-to-face classes into three pedagogical approaches: synchronous, asynchronous, and blended learning, requiring teachers to change the grading system, assessment, and evaluation of student performance. This study aimed to determine the assessment tools, strategies, and challenges that teachers encounter during online learning. The researchers conducted an online and face-to-face survey that consisted of 75 questions to 50 online teachers who were selected through convenience sampling from seven public and private elementary schools. Findings indicate that most teachers apply traditional assessment strategies to evaluate students in online learning. Some online assessment applications like Edpuzzle, Google Classroom, Kahoot, and Quizzes are rarely used to assess student learning. Teachers, however, frequently utilized Facebook and Messenger in delivering assessments. They applied multiple assessment strategies in online learning to accommodate the learning styles of their students. However, data revealed that most teachers have difficulty ensuring the quality of participation, integrating authentic assessment into online learning, and using online assessment applications. It is recommended for teachers to provide their students with balanced assessment, timely communication, constructive feedback, group multimedia projects, appropriate instructional materials, and alternative online tools to enable meaningful learning.
