Title of Artifact: Assessment Assignment
How did completing this assignment help you to learn about the different types of assessment?
- Completing this assignment helped me understand the different ways teachers check if
students are learning. I learned about tests, quizzes, projects, and presentations as types of
assessments. Tests and quizzes ask questions to see what students remember. Projects let
students show what they've learned by doing something creative, like making a poster or
a model. Presentations allow students to explain what they've learned to the class. By
doing this assignment, I realized that each type of assessment has its strengths and
weaknesses for different students. Some are better for testing memory, while others are
good for creativity and communication skills. This understanding will help me choose the
right assessment for different situations in the future,or different type od learners.

(Explain what you learned about different types of assessment?)
- Through completing this assignment, I learned that there are various ways teachers can check
how well students are learning. I discovered that assessments come in different forms, like tests,
quizzes, projects, and presentations. Also the different between summative assessments and
formative assessments. Each type of assessment serves a different purpose. Tests and quizzes
help measure what students remember, while projects and presentations allow them to
demonstrate their understanding. Tests and quizzes are good for testing memory, while projects

these different types of assessment has helped me see that there are many ways to see student
learning, and it's important to choose the right one depending on what I want to know about my
students' progress.
