Testing, Assessment, Measurement and Evaluation Definition
The definitions for each are:
Test: A method to determine a student's ability to complete certain tasks or demonstrate mastery
of a skill or knowledge of content. Some types would be multiple choice tests, or a weekly
spelling test. While it is commonly used interchangeably with assessment, or even evaluation, it
can be distinguished by the fact that a test is one form of an assessment.
Assessment: The process of gathering information to monitor progress and make educational
decisions if necessary. As noted in my definition of test, an assessment may include a test, but
also includes methods such as observations, interviews, behavior monitoring, etc.
Evaluation: Procedures used to determine whether the subject (i.e. student) meets a preset
criteria, such as qualifying for special education services. This uses assessment (remember that
an assessment may be a test) to make a determination of qualification in accordance with a
predetermined criteria.
Measurement, beyond its general definition, refers to the set of procedures and the principles for
how to use the procedures in educational tests and assessments. Some of the basic principles
of measurement in educational evaluations would be raw scores, percentile ranks, derived
scores, standard scores, etc.
