V. Reflection

As I go over, the idea of assessment is always accompanied by tests was at my subject

concepts. But afterward, I understand that assessments exist independently of testing and that
assessments can exist without tests. Tests are used to make observations on students'
performance, which is the major goal of assessment. Once those observations are made, the tests
are adjusted as needed.
