One of the principles of evaluation states that, “evaluation should provide for self-assessment.”
Determines what students can actually do in real-life situations rather than using some easy-to-score responses to questions
For example, consider the difference between asking students to identify all the metaphors in a story and asking them to discuss why the author used particular metaphors and what effect they had on the story. In the latter case, students must put their knowledge and skills to work just as they might do naturally in or out of school
High-stakes assessment is a method of evaluation that puts a lot of things on the line for the students. In other words, the results of high-stakes assessments are used to make important decisions about a learner's progress.
A diagnostic assessment is a method of educational evaluation that instructors use to find out how much a student knows about a topic. It happens before a new training, course, or lesson, and it helps the teacher to kickstart teaching and learning on the right note.
Portfolio
In a portfolio-based assessment, the instructor asks students to submit a portfolio that details how much they have learned and the different projects they have worked on during the course. The instructor goes on to assess this portfolio to grade the student's knowledge and performance. Portfolio assessment enables students to focus on their real performance, and show their strengths and weaknesses. It makes it easy for the instructor to observe the student's progress during the learning process.
Portfolio is assessment based on the systematic collection of learner work (such as written assignments, drafts, artmork, and presentation.
Peer Assesment
