Assessment plays a significant role in the learning experience of students. It determines their progression through their programmes and enables them to demonstrate that they have achieved the intended learning outcomes. It is assessment that provides the main basis for public recognition of achievement, through the awarding of qualifications and/or credit.

Assessments are vital to the educational process. They provide feedback about what the students know and what they may need to learn in order to obtain the content within a given curriculum. It provides teachers with a glimpse into the student’s readiness on a particular topic or subject. One of the six key principles of having an effective differentiated classroom is having a formative assessment that informs teachers on the effectiveness of their teaching. It also provides teachers with the readiness levels of their students and shows them exactly where the students’ readiness, interests, and learning profile needs really are (Tomlinson, 2014).

“Tests today are not like the tests most parents took when they were in school. New forms of teaching students' work are already in use, and even more changes will be coming in the years ahead. The term "assessment" has come into common use to describe these new ways of measuring students' accomplishments.

An evaluation was achieved by interviewing the students after they completed their assessments. The interview questions were open-ended in order to facilitate a conversation regarding their feelings and thoughts regarding the various assessments they took. What they felt they learned about themselves, were the assessments informative and how will they use the information they learned about themselves to further their education, possible course selection and academic

Assessment is an essential part of the teaching and learning process. Assessment is most effective when there is alignment between the outcomes, the design of assessment tasks, the criteria, marking procedures and feedback provided; this referred to as constructive alignment (Potter & Kustra, 2012). The purpose of an assessment, and the modes and strategies used will depend on a number of factors. Diagnostic, formative, and summative assessment are three modes of assessment that may be used. While each of these modes of assessment has a particular purpose, the underlying purpose of all assessments is to promote student learning (Brady & Kennedy, 2012).

Grocery stores have even gotten into the act with their own versions of fast food restaurants. Families with sick children can stay in Ronald McDonald houses located close to the hospital where the children are receiving treatment, and businesses routinely come to the aid of disaster victims.

Theories of distributive justice seek to specify what is meant by a just distribution of goods among members of society. All liberal theories (in the sense specified below) may be seen as expressions of laissez-faire with compensations for factors that they consider to be morally arbitrary. More specifically, such theories may be interpreted as specifying that the outcome of individuals acting independently, without the intervention of any central authority, is just, provided that those who fare ill (for reasons that the theories deem to be arbitrary, for example, because they have fewer talents than others) receive compensation from those who fare well.

Educators are faced with many challenges in accurately assessing and evaluating students, and although these two codes are closely related, their effective completion requires different actions. Assessment is a systematic process of collecting and interpreting information about students’ achievements, while evaluation refers to a value judgement that attaches meaning to the data obtained through assessment (Mc Donald, 2007). Educators are called upon to assess and evaluate students who they instruct based on the students’ learning outcomes and course objectives.

Assessment of learning objectives is beneficial to both the student and the institution. To the students, it ensures that they are able to master their program material through provision of programs that are responsive to both their needs and those of their society. Moreover, the assessments provide the faculty with the tools that enable curricular development and renewal. Further, institutions benefit through proof of student learning and achievement that translates into achievement of goals and mission.

When gauging the knowledge of students assessments are needed, however they must ensure that the assessing the actual abilities of the student not just the ability to remember and recall information. All too frequently, students are given assessments too often that do not measure their knowledge level, but instead emphasizing concepts that administrators find useful. These concepts are normally too vague and not relatable to the student and the knowledge he/she needs to continue to learn throughout life.

Marriage isn’t an invention of man. God instituted marriage as a continuation of His work of creation. According to Gods plan, man and woman together, form the unit of humanity. A man or a woman alone is only a half of an entirety. Sadly society is steadfastly moving away from moral purity; due to lack of tradition and morality, which should have been instilled throughout each generation, but instead being persuaded into doing things that it believes is the correct thing to do in its eyes. Such act of moral deterioration is the increase in denial of the necessity and relevance of marriage. Today’s society believes that marriage is only a piece of paper, a private agreement between
