The document discusses measurement and evaluation in education. It defines measurement as quantifying student achievement, attributes, and skills, and evaluation as making judgments about a subject's merit using standards. Evaluation involves systematically determining if educational objectives are achieved by learners. Key points include: - Evaluation assesses objectives, programs, teachers, and learners through diagnostic, formative, summative, and placement evaluation. - Measurement and evaluation serve instructional, administrative, and research purposes such as guiding curriculum development and informing parents. - Good measuring instruments are valid, reliable, and usable. Tests are constructed through planning content based on objectives, writing items, selecting questions, pre-testing, and preparing papers.

consistency, with which a test
measures.
3. Usability- ease in administration,
interpretation and application.

12. Table of Specification
(TOS)
• Is a plan prepared by a classroom
teacher as a basis for test
construction especially a periodic test.
• Is a two-way chart which describes
the topics to be covered by the test
and the number of items or points
which will be associated with each
topic.
