I can use an alternative teaching aid , modify my method of

help carry out the objectives of the lesson. It happens during
the process of presentation inside the class every day or
every period.
Evaluation is a means of testing to measure the progress
of learning that has been achieved and the one that hasn't
been achieved.
It refers to grading. It happens at the end of the course,
the term or the whole year to measure the general standard
of the learners through giving grades, scores, marks or standards.
Assessment:
Assessment is a strategy used to collect information based
on evidence to improve the process of learning or
performance.
Assessment is part of evaluation. It is done by the teacher
himself inside class during the presentation. This collected
information is learner-centered, course based, frequently
anonymous, and not graded.
Assessment is the process of objectively
understanding the state or condition of a thing, by
observation and measurement. Assessment of teaching
means taking a measure of its effectiveness.
“Formative” assessment is a measurement for the
purpose of improving it.
It measures terms, knowledge, skill, attitudes, and beliefs.
It is a tool or method of obtaining information from tests or
other sources about the achievement or abilities of
individuals. Often used interchangeably with test.
Assessment can focus on the individual learner, the
learning community (class, workshop, or other organized
group of learners), the institution, or the educational
system as a whole.
Assessment focuses on learning, teaching and outcomes.
It provides information for improving learning and teaching.
Assessment is an interactive process between students
and faculty that informs faculty how well their students are
learning what they are teaching.
The information is used by faculty to make changes in the
learning environment, and is shared with students to
assist them in improving their learning and study habits.
This information is learner-centered, course based,
frequently anonymous, and not graded.
