A. Test
B. Measurement
C. Assessment
D. Evaluation
Answer is = B
You are absolutely correct! Out of the given options, B. Measurement is limited to the quantitative description of a pupil’s performance.
Here’s the breakdown:
- Test: As discussed previously, a test can involve quantitative data (scores), but it can also involve qualitative elements like observing a student’s approach to solving a problem.
- Measurement: This focuses on assigning a numerical value to a student’s performance on a specific task or skill. It’s purely quantitative.
- Assessment: This is broader and can include both quantitative (scores) and qualitative data (observations, teacher feedback) to get a more holistic picture of a student’s learning.
- Evaluation: This goes beyond just describing performance. It involves making judgments about a student’s progress, strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement
