Q. Assessment is integral to the teaching–learning process, facilitating student learning and improving instruction, can take a variety of forms. Explain this statement with the help of examples.

Assessment is an integral part of instruction, as it determines whether or not the goals of education are being met. Assessment affects decisions about grades, placement, advancement, instructional needs, curriculum, and, in some cases, funding. Assessment inspires us to ask these hard questions: “Are we teaching what we think we are teaching?” “Are students learning what they are supposed to be learning?” “Is there a way to teach the subject better, thereby promoting better learning?”

Today’s students need to know not only the basic reading and arithmetic skills but also skills that will allow them to face a world that is continually changing. They must be able to  think critically, analyze, and make inferences. Changes in the skills base and knowledge our students need require new learning goals; these new learning goals change the relationship between assessment and instruction. Teachers need to take an active role in making decisions about the purpose of assessment and the content that is being assessed.

Assessment as learning develops and supports students’ meta-cognitive skills. This form of assessment is crucial in helping students become lifelong learners. As students engage  in peer and self-assessment, they learn to make sense of information, relate it to prior knowledge and use it for new learning. Students develop a sense of ownership and efficacy when they use teacher, peer, and self-assessment feedback to make adjustments, improvements, and changes to what they understand. Assessment for learning is an ongoing assessment that allows teachers to monitor students on a day-to-day basis and modify their teaching based on what the students need to be successful. This assessment provides students with the timely, specific feedback that they need to make adjustments to their learning.
