It is also important that assessment aligns with learning outcomes. In an outcomes-based learning environment the focus is on helping a variety of learners achieve learning outcomes.
By definition, learning outcomes are performance-based. Learners must go beyond knowing to being able to show what they know.
In short, well planned assessments allow learners to demonstrate that they have achieved the learning outcome(s) or provide feedback that identifies the progress they are making towards their achievement.

77Formative Assessment
77
Formative assessment has been described asbeing assessment for learning.
It “refers to all those activities undertaken by teachers, and by the students in assessing themselves, which provide information to be used as feedback to modify the teaching and learning activities in which they are engaged” (Black and Williams, 1998).

78Summative Assessment
78
Summative assessment is assessment that tries to summarise student learning at some point in time –usually at the end of a module or programme.
Summative assessment has been described as “end-of-course assessment and essentially means that this is assessment which produces a measure which sums up someone’s achievement and which has no other real use except as a description of what has been achieved” (Brown and Knight, 1994).
Thus, the use of summative assessment enables a grade to be generated that reflects the student's performance usually through the traditional examination paper.
