begins with collecting data from
00:01:11
students teachers or other sources the

data is then analyed to find out what
00:01:17
needs to be changed in order for
00:01:18
students to learn more effectively

curriculum or teaching methods
00:01:25
assessment and evaluation are two
00:01:27
different concepts that teachers and

Educators can use such as one formative
00:02:18
assessments assessments conducted during
00:02:21
learning in order to provide feedback
00:02:23
that helps students improve their
00:02:25
understanding two summative assessments
00:02:29
assessments designed to measure how much
00:02:31
a student has learned at the end of a
00:02:33
unit or school year three and portfolio
00:02:38
assessments a collection of student work
00:02:41
that demonstrates what they have learned
00:02:43
over time while there are various forms
00:02:46
of assessment all have the same
00:02:47
underlying purpose to provide feedback
00:02:50
to teachers and students on what has
00:02:52
been learned and how well it has been
00:02:54
learned what is evaluation in education
00:02:57
evaluation is actually a process that
00:03:00
has many purposes and can be used in a
00:03:02
variety of ways the definition of
00:03:05
evaluation according to Mariam Webster
00:03:07
is the act or technique of assessing
00:03:09
something this can include assessing the
00:03:12
worth value or importance of something
00:03:15
in order to measure the effectiveness of
00:03:17
an educational program it is important
00:03:19
to first understand the meaning of
00:03:22
evaluation evaluation has been described
00:03:24
as the systematic collection and
00:03:26
Analysis of information to determine the
00:03:28
Merit Worth or value of something
00:03:30
scriven
00:03:32
1991 Donaldson and chrisy 2006
00:03:37
250 claim that evaluation generates
00:03:40
information for decision-making often
00:03:42
answering the bottom line questions why
00:03:45
does it work for whom does it work best
00:03:48
under what conditions does it work how
00:03:51
do we make it better when used in the
00:03:53
context of Education evaluation refers
00:03:56
to the process of assessing and
00:03:58
documenting what student students have
00:04:00
learned and how well they have learned
00:04:02
it it also includes judgments about the
00:04:04
quality of teaching and learning
00:04:07
experiences how do you know if the
00:04:09
student has learned something you can
00:04:11
measure the progress of an educational
00:04:13
program by measuring the knowledge
00:04:15
skills and attitudes of a student what
00:04:18
is the need for evaluation in education
00:04:21
in order for education to be effective
00:04:24
it is important to constantly evaluate
00:04:26
how well students are learning and
00:04:28
identify any areas that may need
00:04:30
Improvement evaluation can help
00:04:32
Educators determine what methods of
00:04:34
instruction work best for students and
00:04:37
which strategies need to be changed or
00:04:39
discontinued additionally evaluation can
00:04:42
help identify any students who are
00:04:44
struggling and may need additional
00:04:46
assistance ultimately evaluation plays a
00:04:49
critical role in ensuring that students
00:04:51
receive the best education possible thus

the need for evaluation in education is
00:04:57
critical evaluation provides a framework
00:05:00
for the continuous Improvement of
00:05:02
teaching and learning processes the
00:05:04
purpose of assessment and evaluation in
00:05:07
most schools assessment and evaluation
00:05:10
are used interchangeably but they have
00:05:12
different purposes assessment is the
00:05:15
process of gathering information in
00:05:17
order to make decisions it can be done
00:05:19
formally or informally evaluation is the
00:05:22
use of that information to make
00:05:24
judgments about students programs or
00:05:27
schools formal assessment is more common
00:05:30
in schools while evaluation is more
00:05:32
common in businesses assessment focuses
00:05:35
on the students evaluation focuses on
00:05:38
the programs and systems that support
00:05:41
learning in formal assessment teachers
00:05:43
and administrators evaluate students
00:05:46
Knowledge and Skills as part of a larger
00:05:48
evaluation of the school's curriculum in
00:05:51
formal assessment the results are used
00:05:53
to make decisions about what the schools
00:05:55
should be doing in evaluation the
00:05:58
results of assessment are used to inform
00:06:01
decisions about what a school should be
00:06:03
doing but they do not necessarily direct
00:06:05
programmatic
00:06:06
changes assessment involves multiple
00:06:09
steps one the first step is to establish
00:06:13
the assessment purpose and to determine
00:06:15
the types of data that will be collected
00:06:18
two next the researchers must decide
00:06:21
what criteria will be used to evaluate
00:06:24
learning three third they need to select
00:06:27
which students are most appropriate for
00:06:29
for assessing learning the choice of who
00:06:32
will be tested and how they will be
00:06:33
assessed is an important issue because
00:06:36
the assessment process is not yet
00:06:38
complete it is difficult to know whether
00:06:40
a school's results are accurate or not
00:06:43
assessment can also be used to monitor
00:06:45
student progress over time when to use
00:06:49
assessment when to use assessment is a
00:06:51
difficult question because it can depend
00:06:53
on the context and what you are trying
00:06:55
to assess generally though assessment
00:06:59
can be used used to measure progress
00:07:01
diagnose learning problems and determine
00:07:03
if instruction is effective it can also
00:07:06
help teachers plan instruction by
00:07:08
identifying what students know and don't
00:07:10
know in order to make sure assessment is
00:07:13
effective it's important to select the
00:07:15
right type of assessment for the task at
00:07:17
hand and use it in a consistent manner
00:07:20
assessment is not an exact science and
00:07:22
there are many factors to consider when
00:07:25
deciding the best time to use assessment
00:07:27
one of the most important factors is the
00:07:30
type of issue you are trying to address
00:07:32
how do you know if your students are
00:07:34
grasping new Concepts assessing students
00:07:37
learning
00:07:38
outcomes a teacher's role is to help
00:07:41
students learn and one way to do this is
00:07:43
to assess their learning outcomes this
00:07:46
involves determining what students know
00:07:49
and can do as a result of instruction
00:07:51
there are various assessment methods
00:07:53
that can be used such as tests quizzes
00:07:56
essays projects or portfolios
00:08:00
it's important for teachers to select
00:08:02
the right assessment tool for the task
00:08:04
at hand and also to use assessments that
00:08:07
are valid and reliable by assessing
00:08:09
students learning outcomes on a regular
00:08:11
basis teachers can ensure that students
00:08:14
are making progress and are able to
00:08:16
achieve the desired learning
00:08:18
outcomes when to use
00:08:21
evaluation when to use evaluation is a
00:08:24
question that is often asked by students
00:08:27
professionals and people in general the
00:08:29
answer to this question can be difficult
00:08:31
to determine because it depends on the
00:08:33
situation there are however some
00:08:36
instances in which evaluation is more
00:08:38
appropriate than others one such
00:08:41
instance is when making a decision in
00:08:44
order to make an informed decision it is
00:08:46
necessary to weigh the pros and cons of
00:08:48
each option another time evaluation
00:08:51
might be useful is when trying to
00:08:53
determine the cause of a problem once
00:08:55
the cause has been determined it can be
00:08:58
easier to find a solution
00:09:00
finally evaluation can also be helpful
00:09:02
when assessing progress this allows
00:09:05
individuals or groups to see what has
00:09:07
been accomplished and what still needs
00:09:09
to be done evaluating students learning
00:09:13
outcomes the evaluation of students
00:09:16
learning outcomes is often seen as a
00:09:18
daunting task however if done correctly
00:09:22
it can provide valuable insights into
00:09:24
how students are learning and what can
00:09:26
be done to improve their educational
00:09:28
experience the first step in evaluating
00:09:31
students learning outcomes is to develop
00:09:33
a plan for the assessment this should
00:09:35
include a clear description of what is
00:09:37
being assessed how it will be assessed
00:09:40
and who will be responsible for doing so
00:09:42
once the assessment plan is in place the
00:09:45
next step is to gather data this can be
00:09:48
done through surveys interviews focus
00:09:51
groups or standardized tests once the
00:09:54
data has been collected it must be
00:09:57
analyzed and interpreted this Pro
00:09:59
process should include identifying
00:10:01
Trends and patterns as well as
00:10:02
determining which factors are most
00:10:04
influencing Student Success finally the
00:10:07
findings of the evaluation should be
00:10:09
used to inform future decisions about
00:10:12
teaching and learning what are the
00:10:14
benefits of using assessment and
00:10:17
evaluation when it comes to education
00:10:19
assessment and evaluation are two key
00:10:22
Concepts that are essential for student
00:10:24
learning assessment refers to the
00:10:26
process of gathering information in
00:10:28
order to make decisions about students
00:10:30
learning evaluation on the other hand is
00:10:34
the act of making judgments about the
00:10:35
quality of something often with a focus
00:10:38
on educational programs or student
00:10:40
achievement both assessment and
00:10:42
evaluation have benefits for both
00:10:44
Educators and students the benefits of
00:10:47
these Concepts when used in education is
00:10:50
that they provide us with information
00:10:52
about what students are learning and
00:10:54
what they should be able to do
00:10:57
conclusion assessment and evaluation in
00:10:59
education are often confused with one
00:11:02
another however there is a significant
00:11:04
difference between the two concepts
00:11:07
assessment is the process of determining
00:11:09
what has happened or is happening in a
00:11:11
particular situation evaluation is the
00:11:14
assessment of whether a proposed
00:11:16
solution is effective in achieving its
00:11:17
intended outcomes evaluation should not
00:11:21
just be limited to academic success
00:11:23
rates it should also take into account
00:11:26
social emotional and practical outcomes
00:11:28
as well
00:11:29
evaluation can help Educators make
00:11:32
informed decisions about how best to
00:11:34
serve their students and improve
00:11:35
educational programs overall
