The Role of Evaluation in Education

Evaluation involves quantifying student achievement, skills, and behaviors through measurement and assessment. It determines the outcomes of learning through both formative and summative processes. Measurement and evaluation serve important instructional and administrative functions such as identifying student strengths and weaknesses, determining teacher effectiveness, and guiding curriculum development. For evaluation to be effective, it should be based on clear objectives and used as an integral part of the teaching and learning process.

FUNCTIONS OF MEASUREMENT
FUNCTIONS OF MEASUREMENT
1. INSTRUCTIONAL
a) Principal (basic purpose)
- to determine what knowledge, skills,
abilities, habits and attitudes have been
acquired
- to determine what progress or extent of
learning attained
- to determine strengths, weaknesses,
difficulties and needs of students
FUNCTIONS OF MEASUREMENTS

1.b) Secondary (auxiliary functions for


effective teaching and learning)
- to help in study habits formation
- to develop the effort-making capacity of
students
- to serve as aid for guidance, counselling, and
prognosis
FUNCTIONS OF MEASUREMENTS

2. ADMINISTRATIVE/SUPERVISORY
- to maintain standards
- to classify or select for special purposes
- to determine teachers efficiency,
effectiveness of methods, strategies used

making and developing
Administrative / supervisory Function

learning process
INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES
INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES

• A statement that specifies in behavioural


(measurable) terms what a learner will
be able to do as a result of instruction.
• It describes the intended outcome of
your instruction rather than a description
or summary of your content.
Just think:

• Learner-centered, not teacher-centered.


• Outcomes-driven, not process-driven.
• Objective measures, not subjective
measures.
• Specific behaviors, not vague behaviors.
EVALUATION PROCESS
• Process Evaluation: Describe and assess
program materials and activities
• Examination of materials is likely to occur
while programs are being developed, as a
check on the appropriateness of the approach
and procedures that will be used in the
program.
• Outcome Evaluations: study the immediate or
direct effects of the program on participants

• Impact Evaluations look beyond the


immediate results of policies, instruction, or
services to identify longer-term as well as
unintended program effects
• We measure distance, we assess
learning, and we evaluate results in
terms of some set of criteria.
“Everything that can be counted does not
necessarily count; everything that
counts cannot necessarily be counted”
Albert Einstein
