INTRODUCTION MEASUREMENT
AND EVALUATION
The process of measurement is an essential component
of the learning system. Measurement has more
administrative utility in education than evaluation. An
evaluation process is useful in modifying and
improving learning system and instructional
procedure. The process of measurement is more
precise and objective in approach, when compared to
evaluation.

INTRODUCTION
 Assignment of numbers (quality
test, rating scale)
 It is the process of obtaining
numerical description of the
degree of individual possesses.
 Quantifying of how much does
learner learned.
 It is an act or process that involves
the assignment of numerical
values to whatever is being tested.
So it involves the quality of
something.
 E.g. student’s score in an
examination.

MEANING OF MEASUREMENT
The English word measurement originate from the
Latin mensura and the “the action of measuring
something, . “accurate measurement is essential”.

DEFINITION
Measurement is an act or a process that involves the
assignment of numerical index to whatever is being
assessed.

OR
In education, the numerical
value of scholastics ability,
aptitude, achievement etc
can be measured and
obtained using instruments
such as paper and pencil
test. It means that the value
of the attribute are
translated into numbers by
measurement.

CONCEPT OF MEASUREMENT
 Measurement is
the assignment of
a numerical value
to an attribute of
an object.
 The units that we
use to measure
are most often
standard units.

NATURE OF MEASUREMENT
 It should be quantitative in
nature.
 It must be precise and
accurate.
 It must be reliable.
 It must be valid.
 It must be objective in
nature.

CHARACTERISTICS OF
MEASUREMENT
1. Valid
2. Reliable
3. Objective
4. Usable and practicable
5. Comprehensive and precise

6. Easy in administrating
7. Economical
8. Easy in scoring
9. Easily available
10. Good and attractive getup

1. PROGNOSIS
 Tells differences among people’s
performance.
 Has the administrative function
such as classification, selection,
promotion and gradation of
students.
 Guidance and counseling service
based on prognosis function of
measurement.
 Effectiveness of method,
instruction and treatment are
evaluated on the basis of student
achievement.

2. DIAGNOSIS
 Identifies the
weakness of he
student – learning.
 Remedial instruction
prepared on the basis
of diagnosis.
 Establishment the
cause effect
relationship but
prediction implies the
simple relationship.

3. RESEARCH
 Measurement provides
more objective and
dependable basis for
research purposes. Valid
generalization can be made
on the basis of accurate
measurement.

FUNCTION OF MEASUREMENT
Function of measurement are classified into two major aspects:
1.Instructional function
2. Administrative and supervisory
function of measurement

1. INSTRUCTIONAL FUNCTION
When it is used to determine the outcomes of teaching
and learning processes and when it is used to make
learning more effective.
Its two type :
a. Principal
instructional
function
b. Secondary
instructional
function

a. PRINCIPAL INSTRUCTIONAL
FUNCTION
Basic purpose of measurement:
 To determine what knowledge, skill, abilities, habits,
and attitudes have been acquired.
 To determine what progress has been made in the
acquisition of the learning outcomes.
 To determine the strength, difficulties and needs of the
students.

b. SECONDARY INSTRUCTION
FUNCTION
(Auxillary function) it help make teaching and learning
more effective.
 To helped in the formation of study habits.
 To developed the effort-making capacity of the
students.
 To serve as aid for guidance, counseling, and
prognosis.

2. ADMINISTRATIVE AND
SUPERVISORY FUNCTION OF
MEASUREMENT
These are those that help making the instructional
functions more effective
 To maintain standard
 To classify or select student for special purposes

CONT..
 To determine the efficacy of teachers, the effectiveness
of their methods, techniques and strategies, their
strength, weakness, and needs.
 To serve as basis or guide for curriculum making and
development

CONT..
 To serve as guide for administration and supervisors in
making their educational plans and programs for their
schools
 To set up norm of performance.
 To keep parents informed of the progress made by
their children in school.

TYPE OF MEASUREMENT
1.Direct
measureme
nt
2.Indirect
measureme
nt
3. Miscellaneous

1. DIRECT MEASURESMENT
 Physiological measure:
heart rate, blood pressure,
breathing rate, Galvanic
skin response, eye
response, eye movement,
magnetic resonance
imaging, etc.

CONT..
 Behavioral measure:
 In a naturalistic setting:
videotaping leave-taking
behavior (how people
say goodbye) at an
airport.
 In a laboratory setting:
videotaping superior-
subordinate interactions
in a simulated
environment.

2. INDIRECT MEASUREMENT
 Relying on observers’
estimates or perceptions
with indirect questions
 Asking subordinates,
rather than managers, what
managerial style they
perceive their supervisors
employ.

 Unconstructive
measurements:
measures of
accretion, erosion,
etc.
“garbology” research
–studying discarded
trash for clues about
lifestyle, eating
habits, consumer
purchases, etc.
CONT..

3. MISCELLANEOUS MEASURES
 Archived data:
 Example: number of emails
send from students to
instructors for research
purpose.
 Retrospective data:
 Example: employee
absenteeism or turn-over rates
in an organization.

1.NOMINAL SCALE
 Used for labeling variables, without any quantitative
value.
 Simply be called “Labels”.
 Mutually excusive and none of them have any
numerical significance.
 “Nominal” sounds a lot like “Name”.
E.g. what is
your gender?
Male
Female

2.ORDINAL SCALE
 Order of the values is what’s important and significant
but the differences each one is not really know.
 Measure of non-numeric concepts like satisfaction,
happiness, discomfort etc.
 “ordinal” is sounds like “order”.
E.g. how do you feel
today?
1-very unhappy
2-unhappy
3-ok
4-happy
5-very happy

3.INTERVAL SCALE
 Numeric scales.
 Difference between the values is the same.
 “interval scale” means interval itself means “Space in
between”
 Not clear idea about zero.
.
Example
Time is an example of an
interval scale and temperature
is also a example of interval
scale.

4.RATIO SCALE
 Allows for a wide range of both descriptive and
inferential statistics to be applied.
 Have absolute zero.
 Variables can be meaningfully added, subtracted,
multiplied, divided.
 Central tendency can be measured by mode, median or
mean, measures of dispersion such as standard deviation
and coefficient of variation can be calculated from ratio
scales.
E.g. Ruler ,income, grade
point average, years of
work experience, number of
children.

ACTIVITY RELATED TO
MEASUREMENT
 For example:
measurement the height
and weight of child in a
particular age group (10-
12 year) for the
assessment of obesity by
using BMI scale.
 The measurement of
height in meter or
centimeter.
 The measurement of
weight in kg.

INTRODUCTION
 Process of making value judgments over a level of
performance or achievement.
 Based on qualitative data.

MEANING OF EVALUATION
 Evaluation has its origin
from the Latin word
“Valupure” which means
the value of a particular
thing, idea or action.
 Evaluation means finding
out the value of
something.

DEFINITION
According to James M. Lee “Evaluation is the
appraisal of pupil’s progress in attaining the
educational goals set by the school, the class and
himself. The chief purpose of evaluation is to guide
the students for further learning. Evaluation is a
positive rather than a negative process”.

CONCEPT OF EVALUATION
“Evaluation is the collection , analysis and
interpretation of information about any aspect of a
programme of education, as part of a recognized
process of judging its effectiveness, its efficiency and
any other outcomes it may have”

NATURE OF EVALUATION
 Evaluation is a science of
providing information for
decision making.
 It includes measurement,
assessment and testing.
 It is a process that involves:
Information gathering.
Information processing.
Judgment forming.
Decision making

and address problems immediately.

SUMMATIVE EVALUATION/
COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION
 Evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional
unit by comparing it against some standard or
benchmark.
 High stakes means that they have a high point value.
Example:
 Mid term exam
 Final project
 Paper/exam

3. DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
 In this type of evaluation detect
pupil’s learning difficulties
which somehow are not
revealed by formative test. It is
more comprehensive and
specific.

FUNCTION OF EVALUATION
 To make provisions for
guiding the growth of
individuals and pupils.

feed back

Actually tests what is
sets out to test.
Example:
Question that are
intended to test recall
of factual material but
which actually test the
candidate’s powers of
reasoning.
Validity

Measure of the consistency
with which the question,
test or examination
produces the same result
under different but
comparable conditions.
 One evaluative question
should test only one thing
at a time.
 Adequately reflect the
objectives of the teaching
unit.
Reliability

 It should be realistic,
practical and efficient in
terms of their cost, time
taken and case of
application.
Practicabili
ty

 Reflects the accurate range
of expected behaviors as
desired by the course
objectives.
 Information provided to the
students about the
evaluation such as nature of
the materials, the form and
structure of examination,
length of the examination
and value (in terms of
marks)
Fairness

 Useful for student
knowing their
strength and
weakness.
 Suggest all the
needful requirements
for the needful
requirements for the
students
improvement.
