PRINCIPLES OF ASSESSMENT- It should be mentioned what is to be

assessed. The procedure of the assessment should be

related to the characteristics of performance to be measured.

Different tools and techniques are included in assessment.

An assessor should be skilled one. He or she should know, how to use a particular tool, the nature of the observations.

IMPORTANCE OF ASSESSMENT- It helps to evaluate the students. It gives proper meaning to the evaluation

process. It describes the facts. It guides to improve the teaching learning

process.

EVALUATION DEFINITIONS Evaluation refers to the act or process of

determining the value of something. Qualitative judgment of how good or how

satisfactory an individual’s performance has been. Systematic process of determining the extent to

which educational objectives are achieved by the students.

It is a study to determine the effectiveness of instruction in respect of an individual child, a group of children or the school programme.

Evaluation includes both quantitative and qualitative description of pupil behavior plus value judgement.

PRINCIPLES OF EVALUATION- Purposeful or based on the objective. Selection of evaluation technique. Comprehensive evaluation. Proper use of evaluation tech. Continuous process. Done by many.

STEPS OF EVALUTION Identifying and defining. Planning learning experiences. Providing evidence through various tools. Feedback to improve teaching learning.

CHARACTERISTICS OF EVALUTION- It is the method to test, the extent to which

the objectives are achieved. It includes examinations and other tools also. Different tools and techniques are used. It is continuous process. It is the scientific process, so it is called

objective. It gives feedback to students, teachers and

the whole educational system. It is quantitative and qualitative in nature.

IMPORTANCE OF EVALUTION PROCESS-

It gives the outcome of teaching learning process.

It can be understood the achievement according to the objectives.

Evaluation process gives the feedback about students, teachers, teaching-learning process, syllabus and evaluation tool etc.

It is inclusive and continuous process which is useful which is useful for the students progress.
