    Assessment and Evaluation Defined

    This document discusses different types of assessment: assessment for learning, assessment of learning, and assessment as learning. Assessment for learning is formative and helps teachers modify their instruction. Assessment of learning is summative and determines if students achieved learning outcomes. Assessment as learning involves students reflecting on their own learning. The roles of teachers vary for each type but generally include providing feedback, evaluating proficiency, and guiding self-assessment. A traditional assessment pyramid prioritizes assessment of learning, while a contemporary pyramid balances all three types of assessment to maximize student learning.

    Assessment Defined
    Assessment is the systematic
    collection, review, and use of
    information about educational
    programs undertaken for the purpose
    of improving student learning and
    development.
    Learner-Centered Assessment on College Campuses:
    shifting the focus from teaching to learning
    (Huba and Freed 2000)

    Assessment Defined
    Assessment is the process of gathering and
    discussing information from multiple and
    diverse sources in order to develop a deep
    understanding of what students know,
    understand, and can do with their knowledge
    as a result of their educational experiences; the
    process culminates when assessment results are
    used to improve subsequent learning.
    University of Oregon, Teaching Effectiveness Program (2008)

    Assessment Defined
    Assessment of student learning is a participatory
    and interative process that:
    Provides data/information needed on students learning
    Engages the teacher and others in analyzing and using this
    data/information to confirm and improve teaching and
    learning
    Produces evidence that students are learning the outcomes
    intended
    Guides in making educational and institutional
    improvements.
    Evaluates whether changes made improve/impact student
    learning, and documents the learning and teachers efforts.
    The Higher Learning Commission , 2013
