Assessment of student learning is not an end in itself. i.e assessment does not stop with evaluating students learning achievement and grading their performance based on the findings of assessment of student-learning.
The teacher is required to provide students appropriate feedback enabling them to know the shortcomings in their learning and the means and methods of removing them Because teacher providing feedback to students is considered as an integral part of the assessment of student learning.
For this, assessment of learning, particularly the formative assessment helps to a great extent.
Formative assessment that is employed during the teaching of every unit in the subject, aims at improving student learning.
Creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others.

Assessment for, assessment as and assessment of learning are approaches that ...yukti sharma
Assessment for, assessment as and assessment of learning are approaches that enable teachers to gather evidence and make judgements about student achievement. These are not necessarily discrete approaches and may be used individually or together and formally or informally.
Assessment for learning involves teachers using evidence about students' knowledge, understanding and skills to inform their teaching. Sometimes referred to as ‘formative assessment', it usually occurs throughout the teaching and learning process to clarify student learning and understanding.
Assessment for learning:
reflects a view of learning in which assessment helps students learn better, rather than just achieve a better mark
involves formal and informal assessment activities as part of learning and to inform the planning of future learning
includes clear goals for the learning activity
Assessment of Learning
Assessment of learning assists teachers in using evidence of student learning to assess achievement against outcomes and standards. Sometimes referred to as ‘summative assessment', it usually occurs at defined key points during a teaching work or at the end of a unit, term or semester, and may be used to rank or grade students. The effectiveness of assessment of learning for grading or ranking purposes depends on the validity, reliability and weighting placed on any one task. Its effectiveness as an opportunity for learning depends on the nature and quality of the feedback.
Assessment of learning:
is used to plan future learning goals and pathways for students
provides evidence of achievement to the wider community, including parents, educators, the students themselves and outside groups
provides a transparent interpretation across all audiences.
Assessment as Learning
Assessment as learning occurs when students are their own assessors. Students monitor their own learning, ask questions and use a range of strategies to decide what they know and can do, and how to use assessment information for new learning.
Assessment as learning:
encourages students to take responsibility for their own learning
requires students to ask questions about their learning
involves teachers and students creating learning goals to encourage growth and development
The concept of ‘appraisal for learning’ emphasizes that appraisal is an opportunity for teachers to learn about their effectiveness.
Teaching and learning helps teachers understand their own practice and as a result ,improve the quality of student learning.
In this presentation before start the speaker may talk about the role of assessment from daily life especially from third slide. Some important hints are hidden in the pictures that can be inculcates more briefly.

Play allows children to use their creativity while developing their imagination, dexterity, and physical, cognitive, and emotional strength. Play is important to healthy brain development. It is through play that children at a very early age engage and interact in the world around them
David Kolb published his learning styles model in 1984.
The model gave rise to related terms such as Kolb's experiential learning theory (ELT), and Kolb's learning styles inventory (LSI).
In his publications - notably his 1984 book 'Experiential Learning: Experience As The Source Of Learning And Development' Kolb acknowledges the early work on experiential learning by others in the 1900's, including Rogers, Jung, and Piaget.
In turn, Kolb's learning styles model and experiential learning theory are today acknowledged by academics, teachers, managers and trainers as truly seminal works; fundamental concepts towards our understanding and explaining human learning behaviour, and towards helping others to learn.

Examination based assessment
Rote learning can be defined as a memorization technique based on repeating the material again and again till you get through with it and begin to memorize.
The idea behind the rote learning is that one will be able to quickly recall the meaning of the material the more one repeats it. Some of the alternatives to rote learning include meaningful learning, associative learning, and active learning.
Rote learning is generally based on only repeating of the topics, and not the clear understanding of the topics. Rote learning methods are generally used when quick memorization is required, such as learning one's lines in a play or memorizing a telephone number, also some students opt for rote learning instead of meaningful learning method with the clear understanding of the subject.
Rote learning is widely used in the mastery of foundational knowledge.
Active learning is a form of learning in which teaching strives to involve students in the learning process more directly than in other methods
The term active learning "was introduced by the English scholar R W Revans (1907–2003).
Active learning is a process whereby students engage in activities, such as reading, writing, discussion, or problem solving that promote analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of class content.
Principles related to selection of methods for assessment 2S. Raj Kumar
Assessment is directed toward the development and selection of assessment methods
and their use in the classroom by teachers. Based on the conceptual framework provided in the
Standards for Teacher Competence in Educational Assessment of Students (1990), it is
organized around five interrelated themes:
I. Developing and Choosing Methods for Assessment
II. Collecting Assessment Information
III. Judging and Scoring Student Performance
IV. Summarizing and Interpreting Results
V. Reporting Assessment Findings
The Joint Advisory Committee acknowledges that not all of the guidelines are equally
applicable in all circumstances. However, consideration of the full set of principles and
guidelines within Assessment should help to achieve fairness and equity for the students to be
assessed

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Assessment
It is objectively determining by present status or
condition or process by observation and
measurement. Purpose of assessment improving
the present state.

3. Assessment for promoting better learning
✔ Assessment of student learning is not an end in itself. i.e assessment does not stop with
evaluating students learning achievement and grading their performance based on the
findings of assessment of student-learning.
✔ The teacher is required to provide students appropriate feedback enabling them to know
the shortcomings in their learning and the means and methods of removing them
Because, teacher providing feedback to students is considered as an integral part of
assessment of student learning.
S. RAJA KUMAR, Asst.Prof, Thiagarajar College of Preceptors, Madurai
4. Classroom teaching followed by assessment of student learning, teacher
providing student’s appropriate feedback based on the findings of the
assessment.
Students taking efforts to remove the shortcomings in their learning based
on the feedback they received, assessing the learning achievement of
students again, after they refined it, further classroom instruction etc.
form the cyclic activities in the teaching-learning process.
S. RAJA KUMAR, Asst.Prof, Thiagarajar College of Preceptors, Madurai
5. Based on the assessment of student learning..
those who are identified as significantly lagging behind others in their
learning achievement should be subjected to a diagnostic test,
conducted in the subject content taught and the teacher-is required to take
up remedial measures based on the findings obtained from the diagnostic
test
feedback that follows the assessment is an integral part of assessment;
teaching and assessment are integrated together.
The end result of assessment of students is the enhancement of their
learning.

9. Suppose, all students in the
class express very high
learning achievement, it
implies the standard of the
achievement test used in
the evaluation of student
learning is low.
Most of the questions in
the test may have been
easy, testing only the
cognitive ability
(Knowledge)
The test includes
suitable items to test
higher order cognitive
skills like
‘understanding’,
‘application’ ‘reasoning’
etc.
The feedback received from this
makes the teachers understand
the necessity of developing
quality achievement tests with
reasonable standard,
S. RAJA KUMAR, Asst.Prof, Thiagarajar College of Preceptors, Madurai
10. Summary
✔Feedback - improve students learning.
✔Feedback is also useful for teachers in two ways.
✔It helps the teacher to know the subject areas which students find it difficult to learn and take
necessary remedial measures for the same
✔It also helps the' teacher to know the deficiencies in his/her teaching so that the required
changes could be adopted in teaching so as to improve the quality of classroom instruction.
✔The total effect of all these, results in the significant improvement in learning of all students
in the class.
✔ Hence, assessment with appropriate feedback can be considered as a way to promote better
learning in students.
