Assessment Tools for English 6 Through Aralinks at St. Bridget College, Batangas City

Abstract

This study examined the assessment tools used in teaching English 6 through Aralinks at St. Bridget College, Batangas City. It aimed to determine how effective and appropriate these digital tools are in assessing students’ English skills, particularly in reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary, and communication. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving surveys, interviews, classroom observations, and the analysis of students’ academic outputs. Participants included English 6 teachers and students, as well as relevant academic records.

The results showed that Aralinks-based assessment tools, such as online quizzes, performance tasks, peer-review activities, and rubric-based assessments, helped increase student engagement and allowed teachers to give timely and meaningful feedback. These tools also supported varied teaching strategies that addressed different learning needs. Despite these benefits, the study identified challenges related to limited access to technology, varying levels of students’ digital skills, and the need for further teacher training.

Overall, the study found that Aralinks has strong potential to improve assessment practices in English 6 when used thoughtfully and consistently. To maximize its effectiveness, the study recommends continuous teacher development, regular evaluation of assessment tools, and improved access to digital resources for students. The findings offer valuable insights for enhancing digital assessment practices in basic education
