You might think of assessing and testing as synonymous terms, but they are not. Let’s differentiate the two concepts.

In educational practice, assessment is an ongoing process that includes a wide range of methodological techniques. Whenever a student responds to a question, offers a comment, or tries a new word or structure, the teacher subconsciously analyses the student’s performance. Written work—from a simple sentence to a formal essay—is a performance that ultimately is “judged” by self, teacher, and possibly other students. Reading and listening activities usually require some sort of productive performance that the teacher observes and then implicitly evaluates. A good teacher never ceases to assess students, whether those assessments are incidental or intended.

Tests, on the other hand, are prepared administrative procedures that occur at identifiable times in a curriculum, when learners know that their responses are being measured and evaluated.
