portfolios is one of kind portfolios assessment that students do on a piece of
paper then they collect it to their teacher. After that, the teacher would find
the best of the best of the task. The student who gets the best score, his/her
score would be patched on the wall magazine. But this showcase portfolios is
not really good type for assess students because it has disadvantages. Second

do in their daily activity. It is also called daily tasks in the classroom
assessment. The last type is assessment portfolios. Assessment portfolios is a
