-Assessment of learning assists teachers in using evidence of student learning to assess achievement against outcomes and standards. Sometimes referred to as ‘summative assessment', it usually occurs at defined key points during a teaching work or at the end of a unit, term or semester, and may be used to rank or grade students. (NSW Government, n.d)

-Assessment as learning occurs when students are their own assessors. Students monitor their own learning, ask questions and use a range of strategies to decide what they know and can do, and how to use assessment information for new learning (NSW Government, n.d).

-Assessment for learning involves teachers using evidence about students' knowledge, understanding and skills to inform their teaching. (NSW Government, n.d).

-Assessment of learning example:

is used to plan future learning goals and pathways for students

provides evidence of achievement to the wider community, including parents, educators, the students themselves and outside groups

provides a transparent interpretation across all audiences.

The approach or approaches used will be informed by:

the evidence of student learning to be gathered

the processes for gathering the evidence

the feedback to be provided to students (NSW Government, n.d).

-Assessment as learning example:

encourages students to take responsibility for their own learning

requires students to ask questions about their learning

involves teachers and students creating learning goals to encourage growth and development

provides ways for students to use formal and informal feedback and self-assessment to help them understand the next steps in learning

encourages peer assessment, self-assessment and reflection. (NSW Government, n.d)

-Assessment for learning (example):

reflects a view of learning in which assessment helps students learn better, rather than just achieve a better mark

involves formal and informal assessment activities as part of learning and to inform the planning of future learning

includes clear goals for the learning activity

provides effective feedback that motivates the learner and can lead to improvement

reflects a belief that all students can improve

encourages self-assessment and peer assessment as part of the regular classroom routines

involves teachers, students and parents reflecting on evidence

is inclusive of all learners. (NSW Government, n.d).

This assessment measures how well students apply their knowledge, skills, and abilities to authentic problems. The key feature is that it requires the student to produce something, such as a report, experiment, or performance, which is scored against specific criteria.

-Formative assessments:
Happens during the class-time when the teacher monitors her/his student's learning progress on a regular basis. ResourcED (n.d) states "The information gathered is rarely marked or graded. Descriptive feedback may accompany formative assessment to let students know whether they have mastered an outcome or whether they require more practice".

-Summative assessment:
Aims to evaluate student learning and academic achievement at the end of a term, year or semester by comparing it against a universal standard or school benchmark. ResourcED (n.d) states "Summative assessments often have a high point value, take place under controlled conditions, and therefore have more visibility".

-Formative assessment examples:
1.Thumbs up and thumbs down: During physical classes and online lessons showing thumbs indicates the student it doing poorly however showing thumbs up indicates the students is on track and doing well.

2.Brainstorming: Teaching in Education (2016) states" teachers use brainstorming prior to introducing a topic to check the student's knowledge".  Prior to starting an  assignment it is a good to brainstorm by writing ideas on a Word document or using a mindmap (Padlet, Coggle or other).

3.Quizzes or anonymous voting

4.Short comparative assessments to see how students are performing against each other.

5.One minute papers on a specific subject matter

6.Lesson exit tickets to summarize what students learned.

7.Silent classroom polls

8.Ask students to create a visualization or doodle map of what they learnt.

-Summative assessment examples:
1.PARCC
2.Midterms
3.Finals
4.Unit tests
5.Projects
6.Standardized tests

Diagnostic assessments are intended to help teachers identify what students know and can do in different domains to support their students' learning. These kinds of assessments may help teachers determine what students understand in order to build on the students' strengths and address their specific needs.
