Assessment

I believe assessment to a teacher and to a student differ. I believe to a teacher assessment is to evaluate a students work, and try to help them find ways to improve and move forward in there education. Assessing students can also help teachers determine if there objective for the assignment has been met. To a student assessing includes judging a student on their work, and determining if they pass or fail the assignment.
While in school I liked certain forms of assessment. Test taking was not my strength, so anytime assessment was measured through a test I did not do well. If I was being assessed through a hands-on project or some way of showing creativity I did well.
I think all students have different strengths and weaknesses and when it comes to assessing a student a teacher must take into consideration the differences, and be able to assess the students by using different methods. For example, tests, hands-on projects, portfolios, group projects etc.
