and measure the learning progress, skills or educational need of students. Its purpose is to
gather the information about the students’ performance or progress to determine their interest
about their learning process. There are 3 types of assessment. The first one is the Assessment
for Learning that allows the teachers to monitor the students on a day to day basis and modify
their teaching based on what students need to be successful. Next is Assessment of

student has completed the learning tasks and activities. Last is the Assessment as Learning,

words in a natural language. Grammar helps the readers’ comprehension. It is usually
considered to consist of syntax and morphology. There are 2 main types of grammar. The first

4. What is the connection between assessment and grammar?

Assessment is a tool that educators use to evaluate the students learning progress while
the grammar is usually consist of syntax and morphology. Grammar is one of those exercises
that the teachers gave to their students. In learning, when you’re a student, you need to
complete or comply an activity. So for the educators they use the assessment for them to know
the ability or skills of a student. Also assessment is a key component of learning because it
helps students learn. When students are able to see how they are doing in a class, they are
able to determine whether or not they understand course material. Assessment can also help
motivate students. If students know they are doing poorly, they may begin to work harder.
