Why do we use assessment? What happens if we don't assess? What does assessment mean for education, decision makers, stakeholders, teachers, and students? How do objectives and learning outcomes guide evaluation? Objectives and learning outcomes are classified by taxonomies by Bloom, Anderson, and Krathwohl. Do these taxonomies also guide the assessment? How does it work? How to measure learning outcomes in the cognitive domain? What are the assessment tools and evaluation methods that are effective in assessment high level cognitive skills? What measuring tools can be used to measure the affective domain? What are the methods of effective measurement in the psychomotor field? How are skills measured? What should be considered in the measurement of objectives and learning outcomes? How can educators benefit from classical and alternative measurement methods? What are the benefits of using multiple assessment? What are the effects of focusing on what learners can do, not how much they cannot do? This chapter explores the assessment of learning outcomes.

The intention of formative assessment tools usage is mainly to assess learning outcomes easily and quickly in a classroom environment. However, the tools need to be accurate and informative for teachers and students. At the end of any learning process, students certainly need to know their level of understanding in the learning process and what are the next steps for them to encounter. However, with increasing numbers of students in a classroom and increasing teaching workload among teachers, the teachers can gain benefits from these tools in assessing the outcomes quickly and more effectively. Formative assessment contributes to the learning process by providing the teachers with feedback on how successful the teaching method is and how well the students understand a particular lesson. This article will discuss the usage of formative assessment tools in education. It describes and reviews several kinds of literature related to alternative ways to assess students using technology transform assessment in the teaching process. The reviews use a comparison technique using twelve-criteria of technology transform assessment using three formative assessment tools available in the market. It is believed that technology transform assessment can bring an enjoyable and engaging assessment environment in the classroom.

The purpose of this study is to comparatively investigate the science teaching curricula in Turkey, which have undergone changes four times since the millennium. For this purpose, we carried out a technical and taxonomic examination of the learning outcomes listed in the science curricula that were introduced in 2000, 2005, 2013, and 2017 concerning Revised Bloom Taxonomy (RBT). In this study, the document analysis method was used. We classified a total of 2,613 learning outcomes in our analyses, which were limited to those related to the cognitive domain. The reliability score of the classifications was .89 according to the equation proposed by Miles and Huberman. The analyses showed that the teaching curricula decreased the intensity of the focus on knowledge and cognitive skills rather than making fundamental changes. Moreover, there was significant parallelism among the examined curricula in terms of the dimensions of the taxonomy. Using national-level results in international exams such as PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) and TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study), we concluded that Turkey had not been successful enough in developing the examined curricula.

This paper considers methodological approaches to the assessment of learning achievement, analysing the impact of the mark on learning motivation of students. External testing and subsequent questionnaires data may serve as an indicator of increasing learning motivation of students due to their confidence in the assessment results. Reliability of assessment is an incentive to enhance learning activities of students and increase interest in a given academic discipline. We observed difficulties of obtaining an objective assessment in schools and possible ways of overcoming them. The research provides the basic provisions of the assessment using the design pattern of assessment tools and processes on the basis of evidence-based arguments modelled on Evidence Centered Design which provides assistance in the development of high-quality assessment tools. The use of patterns may allow educators to make greater use of methods for classifying, organising and planning the assessment of cognitive and competency-based learning outcomes.
