From my personal point of
view, assessment and evaluation are alike terms that make reference to the
companion we as teacher bring to students in the learning process. For example
in my experience, I ask my students if they are following me in any explanation
or activity we are in, and if it is not happening then different kinds of
explanation I must provide to clarify their doubts. Obviously, it is not always
about providing different kinds of explanations but sometimes it concerns the
way I approach the topic. While reading those documents, I realized that the evaluation
or assessment I do while teaching, are composed with the three components stated
in the readings. First, I gather information about what is making students’ life difficult. Then, I analyze what is going wrong and finally I decide what I
should do to make things go in the right track. When this process finally takes
a positive turn, it means when students have understood what is needed, I
proceed to grade what they have done throughout the process.
