Assessment and evaluation are not merely about marks, grades, or report cards. They constitute a process of understanding how children learn, where they face hurdles, the kind of support they require, and how teachers can facilitate their learning journey. This book presents the fundamental concepts of assessment and evaluation to student-teachers pursuing initial teacher education in a manner that is simple, classroom-oriented, and practice-based. Developed against the backdrop of Indian school contexts, teacher education experiences, and field-based insights, the book moves beyond an exam-centric mindset to discuss crucial aspects such as formative assessment, feedback, diagnostic understanding, project work, observation, portfolios, grading, qualitative reporting, and holistic progress. Written in accessible language, the book encourages viewing children not merely in terms of marks, but as learners possessing diverse capabilities, interests, and potential.
