This document outlines a research study on the impact of diagnostic tests in enhancing students' learning. It discusses how diagnostic tests can identify students' strengths and weaknesses in order to provide targeted support. The study aims to examine student performance, evaluate new data compared to previous results, and investigate the positive effects of diagnostic testing on learning. Key points include that diagnostic tests assess students' prior knowledge before instruction, allow teachers to individualize lessons, and create a baseline for measuring future learning. The characteristics, process, and theoretical framework involving diagnostic tests are also reviewed.

3. 
 Concurring to instructive foundation Diagnostic test is the efficient
instrument in which student’s qualities and shortcoming is judged
from profundity for overcoming the shortcoming and advances the
qualities.
 . (Millar & Hames, 2003) said that these give a fast implies of
studying the understanding of understudies. Their presence has
fortified numerous instructors to alter their educating strategies and
approaches, in reaction to what these give a speedy implies of
studying the understanding of understudies.
 It is described by( M.Gee) Diagnostic tests are designed to mimic
what will be on the yearly summative assessment tests. This gives
a good prediction of how well the student will do on annual tests
that are high stakes for the teacher as well as the student, as the
tests show what the child absorbed in the last year to prepare them
for the next grade.
Diagnostic Test

4. 
 Being prospective teacher during teaching practice.
Mostly, The major problem is faced in Government
Girls Elementary High School that during the mid
and Final Summative Assessment students utmost
bothered for preparation of examination and it is
obvious in a class ground there are multiple levels of
students and their learning acquisition style is
different to Another. Therefore, in response of this
problem diagnostic test is chosen to identify
student’s strengths and weakness for providing
remedy.
Problem Statement

5. Research
Objectives
 To identify the ways of
testing.
 To examine students’
performance.
 Evaluate and compare
new data with previous.
Research
Question
 Q.1 which types of test is
conducted for enhancing
learning?
 Q.2 how students learning
can be improved and
strengthen?
 Q.3 what are the positive
effects on students learning
through diagnostic test?

6. 
 This study is too much imperative for knowing students
competencies in subject Science through Diagnostic test and
developing test items in the light of Blooms Taxonomy. It will be
effective in Govt Girls High School. For improvement the
Science Subject by implementing this research. Science
teacher can easily find the difficulty in learning then try to omit
the weak areas of students. The scope of diagnostic test is
much bigger than the utilize of tests and examinations.
 .
A satisfactory determination may include the utilize of insights te
sts, both common and particular, and
of symptomatic accomplishment sorts of research
facility device for measuring tactile movement, co-ordination
and the like.
Scope Of the Study

7. 
 Diagnostic testing in education happens before instruction ever begins.
The ungraded tests given the previous year have a noble purpose – to
assess each child’s knowledge and capabilities to pinpoint what they
may need to succeed. (McGee, 2018)
 diagnostic testing and differentiation. Research suggests that teachers’
perceptions of teaching and learning strongly influence how they teach
and what students learn or achieve. For bringing effectiveness of
classroom ground for instruction to support students’ understanding of
students concept, appropriate assessment tools have to be readily
available for use by classroom teacher . (F.Treagust, 2012).
 First, it allows teachers to plan meaningful and efficient instruction.
 Second, it provides information to individualize instruction
 Finally, it creates a baseline for assessing future learning. (Brummitt-
Yale, n.d)
2.1 Literature Review

8. 
 Characteristics of Diagnostic Test in Science
 1. It needs an expert of specialist to identify the cause for wrong
answers.
 2. In Diagnostic test no scores is made for correct answers, only
wrong responses are find out into view in the sequence of
contents.
 3. It fully emphasizes on all learning and teaching points.
 4. It adopts objective type tests only.
 5. It arranges the items in learning sequence so as to help
transfer to learning position.
 6. It is a base to form tutorial groups so as help the poor
students to develop their performance removing their difficulties.

 The theoretical framework is the structure that can
hold or support a theory of a research study. The
theoretical framework introduces and describes the
theory which explains why the research problem
under study exists.as this study is taken support of
Blooms taxonomy for developing tests items. In
this theory there were six levels were included first
two are not useful the using test item Mcqs and
other four are utilized to construct test.

Population
 Population of this study is
mostly consists on students
of class 7th in science class
The name of the School is
Government Girls High
School attached with
Government Elementary
College of Education (W)
The total population of class
is eleventh students.
Sampling
 The size of the sample
is four students of class
7th who are failure in
test and also in annual
examination. The
technique is used for
sampling is Purposive.

13. 
 It is concluded that action research is the process
in which a teacher find out the problem in ground
and cure.
 As the issue is evaluated in this research lack of
conceptual understanding in Science Subject to
attempt Multiple Choice Question which is
analyzed by administrated the tool or item of
Diagnostic test.
 Four students are taken in this research to
remedy their week areas.
