Abstract

Assessment and learning go hand in hand. As a result, assessment for learning and assessment as learning are used as learning management approaches that emphasize learner-centered learning, with the goal of developing learners to have the skills needed to live in the twenty-first century as well as future manpower in science and technology. This is because both types of assessments provide information to improve learners' learning and identify teacher deficiencies that occur throughout the teaching period. It also gives learners the motivation to learn and learn better when they are self-assessed. Assessment for learning is the gathering of data during the learning management process in order to improve teachers' and learners' learning management. Assessment as learning reflects the learner's own thinking about learning and supports in the development of one's own and peers' learning. This is in contrast to the traditional method of assessing learning, which focuses solely on grade at the end of the semester.
