What type of assessment is typically administered after a unit of instruction, such as a midterm or final exam?
Correct Answer:
Summative Assessment
Explanation:
After a unit of instruction, a summative assessment is used to gauge overall learning and assign a grade. It’s typically formal, graded, and cumulative, like a midterm or final exam that covers the unit’s content. The goal is to determine mastery at the end of instruction. Formative assessment happens during teaching to monitor progress and guide instruction. Diagnostic assessment is used before teaching to identify starting knowledge and gaps. Authentic assessment focuses on real-world tasks and performances, though it emphasizes applying skills rather than a standard end-of-unit measurement. So, the end-of-unit exam best represents a summative assessment.
