At CS assessment is integral to the teaching–learning process, facilitating student learning and improving instruction. Students Achievements are assessed and evaluated through several forms:
Assessment for learning is ongoing assessment that allows teachers to monitor students on a day-to-day basis and modify their teaching based on what the students need to be successful. This assessment provides students with the timely, specific feedback that they need to make adjustments to their learning.
Assessment of learning is a summative assessment used is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. Midterm and End of term Exams are examples of summative assessment strategies applied at CS.
Assessment as learning develops and supports students’ metacognitive skills. This form of assessment is crucial in helping students become lifelong learners. As students engage in peer and self-assessment, they learn to make sense of information, relate it to prior knowledge and use it for new learning. Students develop a sense of ownership and efficacy when they use teacher, peer and self-assessment feedback to make adjustments, improvements and changes to what they understand.
