TOS Builder

TOS Builder helps teachers draft an assessment blueprint by allocating items proportionally across topics and cognitive levels. Enter topics and teaching hours, set a total item count, and adjust the cognitive-level weights. The tool calculates proportional allocations and rounds them to whole items while preserving the requested total where possible. The resulting table is a planning aid, not an official DepEd form or a guarantee that an assessment meets a particular school policy. Review the blueprint against your competencies, objectives and local assessment requirements before use.

Use the tool as a starting point, verify outputs before relying on them, and keep a separate copy of important source data. The interface is designed to work in the browser without an account. The calculations and file checks are intended to make routine work easier, not replace professional judgment or your organization's policies. Before printing, sharing, or issuing an output, review the details carefully and keep a separate backup of important records. This beta release should be tested with representative examples before you depend on it for time-sensitive work. Features that are not yet implemented are disclosed in the interface rather than shown as working controls.
