Summary, Etc.This descriptive-development study focused on developing assessment tools which were based on the competencies in General Biology for use in the Senior High School STEM. Specifically, it aimed to: determine what assessment tools may be developed which are competency-based and making use of traditional and performance-based assessments; determine the validity and reliability of the assessment tools developed through expert-validation and pilot-testing, respectively; revise the assessment tools based on the results of the validation process; and produce and assessment package out of the developed tools. There were two phases in the study, namely; assessment tool development phase and validation and pilot-testing phase. The first phase included the development of both traditional and performance-based assessments and the second phase involved the series of validation by experts-jurors of the content and technical aspects of the assessment tools. From the conduct of the study, the development of assessment tools were based on the competencies provided in the Curriculum Guide of Senior High School STEM strand. They were both traditional and performance-based in nature. The first version of the traditional assessment had a mean rating of 3.9 out of 5. Aiken's validity test yielded 0.74 which falls within the acceptable value of validity. They inter-rater agreement was equal to 0.78 which means that the experts had a substantial agreement in rating the traditional assessment. The Cronbach alpha value is equal to 0.873. This value indicates that the traditional assessment had an acceptable value of reliability based on the cited literature. The performance-based assessments had a mean rating of 3.98 out of 5 coming from the experts which means that the indicators were very satisfactory observed in the tasks. Its reliability value using Cronbach alpha is 0.927 for the performance tasks. Revisions in terms of content and technical aspects were also made based on the comments and suggestions from the experts. Finally, an assessment package was produced featuring the developed assessment tools. This is titled the General Biology Assessment Toolpack (GBAT). The salient findings of the study were: the assessment tools developed were both traditional and performance-based and were based on the General Biology Curriculum Guide for Senior High School. They were therefore competency-based; both the traditional and performance-based tasks were reliable upon validation and pilot-testing; several revisions were made to refine the assessment tools and improve their content and technical construction. Following the validation process, an assessment package was produced featuring the assessment tools developed. The researchers recommended the following: administering the assessment tools to other STEM students outside the province; using assessment tools that are appropriate to the expected competencies of the students in the STEM strand; making use of the results of assessments to reflect on the extent of student participation, engagement and commitment in the learning process
