Student Assessment refers to the process of evaluating a student's understanding, skills, and performance in a specific subject or area of study. This can include various methods such as tests, quizzes, projects, and presentations. The goal is to measure how well students have grasped the material and to identify areas where they may need additional support. Assessments can be formative or summative. Formative assessments are conducted during the learning process to provide ongoing feedback, while summative assessments occur at the end of a learning period to evaluate overall achievement. Both types play a crucial role in guiding instruction and improving student learning outcomes.
