Notes

We can't separate assessment from its purpose. Consider the purpose of assessment when asking "Why do we assess?" Efficiency and effectiveness of assessment

There are 3 criteria; Evidence, Interpretation, Use

Evidence - what, how, who, by whom - there are MANY different types of assessment. We tend to focus on a few types in higher education.

Interpretation

There is always an assessment criteria; just sometimes, it is not explicit. Reliability

The more items of assessment, the more reliable it is.
