Measurement
As it applies to education, the word measurement is not substantially different from
when it is used in any other field. It simply means determining the attributes or
dimensions of an object, skill, or knowledge. We use familiar objects in the physical
world to measure, such as tape measures, scales, and meters. These measurement
tools are held to standards and can be used to obtain reliable results. When used
correctly, they accurately gather data for educators and administrators.

Assessment
One of the primary measurement tools in education is assessment. Teachers gather
information by giving tests, conducting interviews, and monitoring behavior. The
assessment should be carefully prepared and administered to ensure its reliability and
validity. In other words, an appraisal must provide consistent results, and it must
measure what it claims to measure.

Evaluation
is a process that includes measurement and possibly testing, but it also contains the
notion of value judgment. If a teacher administers a test to a class and computes the
percentage of correct responses, it is said that measurement and testing have taken
place. The scores must be interpreted, which may mean converting them to values like
As Bs Cs or judging them to be excellent, good, fair, or poor. This process is called
evaluation.

Classroom assessments can be diagnostic, formative, or summative. At the

beginning of a class, it would be helpful to give students a quiz that would interpret
each student’s favored learning style. This is where diagnostic assessment comes into
play. It is crucial to assess students frequently and with a variety of techniques to
track progress. Formative assessments give evidence of student understanding.
Summative assessments are given at the end of a topic and show whether or not they
have learned the content. Summative assessments tend to be a more substantial
product. The created product should reflect analysis, evaluation, and synthesis of the
information. In this case, I will make a rubric that clearly shows the student what is
expected. All assessments must be reliable and valid. The questions or activities used
in an appraisal must relate to the content that has been taught. Based on how I assess
my student through music, as I was a music teacher, I was measuring their skills,
knowledge,learnings about music and on how they execute all of my lectures in our
rehearsals sometimes I give them a quiz about music theory I know that consistency is
essential to the students, especially their participation and being on time how we
finish our repertoire. It is hard for the teacher to assess students now especially during
this new normal, so I know that there are different ways how we can assess our
students. I believe it is essential for learners to see how much they have learned over
a long period of time. Assessment practices play an essential role in the field of
teaching. They show what students have learned and provide vital information as to
the effectiveness of a lesson, unit, or curriculum.
