摘要:Assessment is a logical approach of gathering data about students' academic progress in order to improve on the student learning and the learning process (Cartwright, et al., 2009; Ewell, 2009; Lindholm, 2009; Marsh, 2007; Scroggins, 2004). Assessments clarify on what students have learnt and also, act as accountability points in the learning process (Alkharusi, 2011, 2012; Koh, 2011; Phamotse et al., 2011). In the process of assessing students, teachers use various approaches to understand what the students have learnt in relation to the curriculum expectations (Harlen, 2005; Timperley, Wilson et al., 2007). Assessments in learning are undertaken on individual students or groups, in form of formative or summative evaluation, or as standardised or informal assessments. In general, assessments provide evidence about the learning outcomes, learning process, individual students, institutions, and programmes to the teachers, students, administrators, and other education stakeholders (Mundia, 2010).
