Measurement
The process of associating numbers with
physical quantities and phenomena.
Measurement is fundamental to the sciences;
to engineering, construction, and other
technical fields; and to almost all everyday
activities
 Measurement is a system to measure the
height, weight, capacity or even amount of
certain objects. We can measure how long
things are or how tall or how far two things
are. For example: The height of Oliver is 100
inches and the height of the giraffe is 150
inches.
Types of measurement
 Direct : Height, weight
 Indirect : measures of hot, cold, light, sound

etc.
 Relative : Obtained through comparison,

Intelligence.etc…
 Assessment is a way to measure if the
learning objectives of a course are being met.
Assessment is valuable for both students and
teachers in evaluating progress. Assessment
can be formative (short term), interim
(occasionally), or summative (at the end of a
large unit of information)
 Based on what it is you need from your
assessments you can build a system of
assessment that typically comprises three
different educational assessment types that serve
different purposes depending on when they are
administered: diagnostic, formative,
and summative. There are other labels for
assessments like pre-test, post-test, progress
monitor, benchmark, or growth assessment, but
those all fall into one or more of these three
broad categories.
 .
 Diagnostic: When we think about educational
measurements, each assessment is designed
for a specific time and purpose. When an
assessment happens before the learning
activity, these are called diagnostic because
the results can be used to diagnose problem
areas to focus on during the teaching to
come.
 Formative: When assessment happens during
the learning process, these are called
formative because the results can be used to
inform what to do next for individuals or
groups of students as learning is occurring.
Both diagnostic and formative are types of
assessment for learning - meaning you are
assessing to support decisions made before
or during learning.
 Summative: When assessments happen after
the learning activity, these are called
summative because the results are a
summation of learning that has occurred
Evaluation
 Evaluation is the process of assessing the
value, worth, or quality of something. In
education, evaluation refers to the systematic
and ongoing assessment of student learning,
progress, and performance in relation to set
learning objectives and standards
