Differences between measurement, evaluation and assessment

Measurement is the process of assigning numbers or symbols to objects to characterize and quantify them. It involves observing and collecting quantifiable data about characteristics. Assessment is a broader process of collecting data through tests and observations to understand a topic or individual's condition. The purpose is to evaluate achievement against objectives. Evaluation is the process of making judgements about the value or worth of performance by establishing objectives, selecting indicators, and comparing data to objectives. It determines the outcomes of learning. The key differences are that measurement quantifies observable phenomena, assessment collects evidence of achievement, and evaluation makes qualitative judgements on performance and outcomes.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEASUREMENT, EVALUATION AND ASSESSMENT SUBMITTED BY SWATHY.M.A MSC COUNSELLING PSYCHOLOGY RAJIV GANDHI NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
MEASUREMENT It is simply referred as the process assigning numbers or symbols to objects for characterising things according to set of rules.  It is used to categorize and/ or quantify variables.  It help to quantify individual’s achievement, personality, attitudes, habits and skills It involves quantification of observable phenomena and it is performed on the physical world by observer.  Here information collected about the characteristics and attributes of things can be determined and differentiated.
FUNCTIONS OF MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONAL It has a key function in measurement which involves two steps again such as: 1.PRINCIPAL It has a basic purpose in measurement that involves such as: To determine what knowledge, skills, abilities, habits and attitudes have been acquired To determine strength and weakness, difficulties, progress and needs of students 2.SECONDARY It has an auxiliary function for effective teaching and learning which involves: To develop the effort making capacity of students To serve as aid for guidance, counselling, and prognosis
SUPERVISORY It includes administrative purposes such as: To maintain standards To classify or select special purposes To serve as a basis or guide for curriculum making and developing
ASSESSMENT It is a process of collection of data to understanding state or condition of thing or issue by observation and measurement. It is a broad term that including assessment and a test is a form of assessment too. Through this evidence of students achievement can be obtained and evaluated, also it collect information with respect to objective or goal
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ASSESSMENT 1. Formative assessment (assessment of learning) It is the measurement for the purpose of improving 2. Summative assessment (assessment for learning) It has high point of value as assessment taking place at the end with whole evaluation
STEPS INVOLVED IN ASSESSMENT ARE: 1. To measure progress that include both pre-test and post test 2. To evaluate the program 3. To determine the strength and weakness of various aspect involves academic and behavioural aspect
EVALUATION It is a process that include a series of steps such as establishing objective, classifying objective, defining objective, selecting indicators and comparing data with objectives. It is concerned with making judgements on the worth or value of performance to answer question. It is also the process of obtaining, analysing and interpreting information to determent the extent to which students achieve instructional objective. It is also considered as qualitative aspect of determining the outcomes of learning
Principles of evaluation Evaluation should be: Based on clearly stated objectives Comprehensive Cooperative Used judiciously Continuous and integral part of teaching learning process
TYPES OF EVALUATION Diagnostic evaluation It is more comprehensive and specific also it help to detect pupil’s learning difficulties who are not revealed by formative tests Formative evaluation It identifies learning errors that need to be corrected and it provides information to make instruction more effective Placement evaluation It determines knowledge and skills he or she possesses which are necessary at the beginning of instruction Summative evaluation It determines the extent to which objectives of instruction have been attained and used for assigning grades and marks and to provide feedback to students
