Abstract: This study aimed to propose a model for selecting appropriate assessment methods. One of the principles of high-quality assessment is appropriateness. Specifically, assessment must be constructively aligned with the level of learning outcomes to consider its appropriateness. The proposed model is comprehensible enough to use in identifying the assessment methods to be used. The researchers analyzed the contents about assessment and selected faculty members and school administrators purposively for a focus group discussion for development and validation of the final proposed model. Starting with the levels of learning outcomes under the taxonomy of objectives in the cognitive domain, types of assessment, and examples of assessment methods, the proposed model was carefully designed and developed to establish the alignment of the assessment methods. The proposed model can be used by educators in designing their assessment methods which are properly aligned and appropriate. Also, the proposed model is the first model for selecting appropriate assessment methods.
