Assessment and Evaluation

 

A teacher must assess students to ascertain how well the individual successfully met the learning target. Therefore, assessment affects decisions about grades, placement, advancement and instructional needs. There are some concepts a teacher must follow in order to be a good teacher, the most important ones are:

• Assessment, which can motivate the unmotivated students, restore students` desire to learn, encourage students to keep learning and build increased achievement.
•  Formative assessment purpose, which is a teaching tool not an accountability tool. This tool helps to make a decision if the students had any information before the lesson and during it, not only after finishing the explanation of the whole lesson.
•  Reasoning target, in which students use the knowledge they gained and put their understanding to figure out and solve a problem.
• Format of the test, in which a good format helps the student to solve the problems in a simple and smooth way instead of flipping the papers.
