4. Assessment isAssessment is
the process of gathering data.
More specifically, assessment is the
ways instructors gather data about

5. Types of AssessmentTypes of Assessment
There are three types of assessment:
diagnostic, formative, and summative.
Although are three are generally
referred to simply as assessment,
there are distinct differences
between the three.

6. Diagnostic AssessmentDiagnostic Assessment
Diagnostic assessment can help you
identify your students’ current
knowledge of a subject, their skill
sets and capabilities, and to clarify
misconceptions before teaching takes
place

7. Types of DiagnosticTypes of Diagnostic
AssessmentsAssessments
Pre-tests (on content and abilities)
Self-assessments (identifying skills and
competencies)
Discussion board responses (on content-
specific prompts)
Interviews (brief, private, 10-minute
interview of each student)

8. Formative AssessmentFormative Assessment
Formative assessment provides feedback
and information during the instructional
process, while learning is taking place, and
while learning is occurring.

9. Types of FormativeTypes of Formative
AssessmentAssessment
 Observations during in-class activities; of students non-verbal
feedback during lecture
 Homework exercises as review for exams and class
discussions)
 Reflections journals that are reviewed periodically during the
semester
 Question and answer sessions, both formal—planned and
informal—spontaneous
 Conferences between the instructor and student at various
points in the semester
 In-class activities where students informally present their
results
 Student feedback collected by periodically answering specific

performance and progress

the learning has been completed and
provides information and feedback that
sums up the teaching and learning
process.

21. Types of SummativeTypes of Summative
AssessmentAssessment
Examinations
Final examination (a truly summative assessment)
Term papers (drafts submitted throughout the

development as a formative assessment)
Performances
Student evaluation of the course (teaching
effectiveness)
Instructor self-evaluation

24. TEACHER THE GREATESTTEACHER THE GREATEST
INNOVATORINNOVATOR
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or
eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.
To teach is to learn twice
Teachers should guide without dictating, and participate
without dominating
The critical factor is not class size but rather the nature of
the teaching as it affects learning.
LEARNING NEVER ENDS
