The Effectiveness of Teacher Assessment Strategies

While preparing for my presentation regarding Teacher assessment strategies I have learned the purpose and the role that it plays in a child’s development. One purpose is to evaluate achievement in comparison to that of a sample group of children. Another purpose is to measure a child’s achievement on specific test objectives. These particular assessments can help with instructional planning for a teacher. These assessments come with a plethora of advantages as well as disadvantages streaming from the lack of development as well as coming directly from the curriculum objectives. One disadvantage in which I have become very familiar with is improper development due to teachers not being made aware of how to implement them and use them in an effective manner. The improper use of these assessments can cause problems in the academic success of the student. In my opinion I also believe that this discredits the teacher regarding the lack of effectiveness.
