The attainment of learning outcomes as defined in the standards shall be the basis for the quality assurance of learning using formative assessments. They shall also be the focus of the summative assessments and shall be the basis for grading at the end of instruction.
The learning outcomes are defined by level: knowledge; process or skill; understanding; and products and performances. These levels shall be the outcomes reflected in the class record and shall be given corresponding percentage weights :
2. Assessment of Process or Skills(25%) Focus is on skills and cognitive operation that the students performs on facts and information for the purpose of constructing meanings or understanding. Quiz ( outlining, analyzing, interpreting, etc. drawing analogies, constructing graphs.)

Beginning (B)- The student at this level struggles with his understanding; prerequisite and fundamental knowledge and skills have not been acquired or developed adequately to aid understanding. 2. Developing (D)- The student at this level possesses the minimum knowledge and skills and core understanding, but needs help throughout the performance of authentic tasks.
3. APPROACHING PROFICIENCY (AP) The student at this level has developed the fundamental
knowledge and skills and core understandings and with little guidance from teacher/peers can transfer these understandings through authentic performance tasks. 4. Proficient (P) The student at this level has developed the fundamental knowledge and skills and core understanding and can transfer them independently through authentic performance task.
