This document discusses measurement and evaluation in education. It begins by defining key terms like measurement, assessment, and evaluation. Measurement is collecting information to make decisions, while evaluation is making judgments based on measurements.
The document then covers differences between measurement and evaluation, with evaluation having a wider scope, being qualitative and quantitative, and being a continuous process. Evaluation serves several purposes like improving teaching methods, encouraging student discipline, and allowing students to practice critical thinking.
The evaluation process involves identifying objectives, selecting teaching points, implementing learning programs, appraising achievements through tests, and using results as feedback. Some problems with evaluation are lack of time, skills, uniform standards, and workload issues for teachers.
