The document discusses three tools of assessment: the cumulative record, questionnaire, and inventory. The cumulative record contains a student's academic results and progress over time. A questionnaire is a form for collecting answers to questions from many respondents efficiently. An inventory is a self-reported survey or questionnaire, often about personal characteristics, that collects subjective information without right or wrong answers.

information ie changes of emotions , behavior, feelings etc.
 Lacks validity
 People may read differently in to each question and there
fore replay based on their own interpretation of the
questionnaire what is good to some one may be poor to
some one else, there fore there is a level of subjectivity that
is not acknowledged.
