The study aims to explore how to measure students’ core competencies through assessments after the 108 Curriculum Guideline. Which SOPs should teachers choose to design competency-based assessments and check their effectiveness? Are there any differences in student performance with different learning styles on traditional and competency-based test questions? The researcher participates in the research project of compiling competency-based test questions by observing the construction of the competency-based test question bank and checking the test questions. This study tested third-grade students of elementary school who fully accepted the teaching system of 108 curricula. It is expected to view the performance of these students in core competency through the compiled tests. In this study, both qualitative and quantitative methods are adopted. The quantitative method focused on the social competency-based test papers compiled by the researchers, including traditional and competency-based test questions and the Kolb Learning Style Inventory as analysis data. In the qualitative method, through semi-structured in-depth interviews, we try to understand the views of different perspectives on competency-based test questions, such as test designers, graders, reviewers, test collaborators, and in-service teachers. The results show that the competency-based test questions designed through the research project participated by the researcher are more effective in core competence performance than the performance in traditional test questions. The propositions design and assessment methods used in this research can be the framework of social competency-based propositions. Student performance on competency-based test questions does not vary due to different learning styles.
