  • Abstract:
  • Assessment in education serves as a crucial tool for evaluating student learning, understanding, and performance. It encompasses a variety of methods, including formative and summative assessments, which provide feedback for both students and educators. Formative assessments, such as quizzes and in-class activities, are conducted during the learning process to monitor progress and guide instructional strategies. Summative assessments, such as final exams and standardized tests, evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional period. Effective assessment practices not only measure educational outcomes but also inform curriculum development, teaching effectiveness, and policy decisions, ensuring a comprehensive approach to fostering academic achievement and growth.
