Assessment is a process that includes four basic components:
1) Measuring improvement over time.
2) Motivating students to study.
3) Evaluating the teaching methods.
4) Ranking the students' capabilities in relation to the whole group evaluation.
The purpose of classroom assessment and evaluation is to give students the opportunity to
show what they have learned rather than catching them out or to show what they have not
learned.
Needless to say, evaluation and assessment can focus on different aspects of teaching and
learning: respectively textbooks and instructional materials, student achievement, and whole
programs of instruction
An effective, goal-oriented, teaching-learning sequence contains clearly understood objectives,
productive classroom activities, and a sufficient amount of feedback to make students aware of
the strengths and weaknesses of their performances. Feedback and evaluation are inseparably
related to both instructional objectives and classroom learning activities and are indispensable
elements in the learning process.
