Pre-assessment or diagnostic assessment

Before creating the instruction, it’s necessary to know for what kind of students you’re creating the
instruction. Your goal is to get to know your student’s strengths, weaknesses and the skills and
knowledge the posses before taking the instruction. Based on the data you’ve collected, you can
create your instruction.
Formative assessment
Formative assessment is used in the first attempt of developing instruction. The goal is to monitor
student learning to provide feedback. It helps identifying the first gaps in your instruction. Based on
this feedback you’ll know what to focus on for further expansion for your instruction.
Summative assessment
Summative assessment is aimed at assessing the extent to which the most important outcomes at
the end of the instruction have been reached. But it measures more: the effectiveness of learning,
reactions on the instruction and the benefits on a long-term base. The long-term benefits can be
determined by following students who attend your course, or test. You are able to see whether and
how they use the learned knowledge, skills and attitudes.

Confirmative assessment
When your instruction has been implemented in your classroom, it’s still necessary to take
assessment. Your goal with confirmative assessments is to find out if the instruction is still a success
after a year, for example, and if the way you're teaching is still on point. You could say that a
confirmative assessment is an extensive form of a summative assessment.
Norm-referenced assessment
This compares a student’s performance against an average norm. This could be the average
national norm for the subject History, for example. Other example is when the teacher compares the
average grade of his or her students against the average grade of the entire school.
Criterion-referenced assessment
It measures student’s performances against a fixed set of predetermined criteria or learning
standards. It checks what students are expected to know and be able to do at a specific stage of
their education. Criterion-referenced tests are used to evaluate a specific body of knowledge or skill
set, it’s a test to evaluate the curriculum taught in a course.

Ipsative assessment
It measures the performance of a student against previous performances from that student. With this
method you’re trying to improve yourself by comparing previous results. You’re not comparing
yourself against other students, which may be not so good for your self-confidence.
