A GOOD EVALUATION
SUMMARY
- Validity: A valid evaluation is one which actually tests what is sets out to test, one which measures the behavior described by the objective(s), under scrutiny.
- Reliability: The reability is a measure of the consistency with which the question, test or examination produces the same result under different but comparable conditions. A reliable evaluation item gives reproducible scores with similar populations of students.It is, independent of the characteristics of individual evaluators.
- Practicability: Evaluation procedure should be realistic, practical and efficient in term of their cost, time taken and ease of application.
- Fairness: Evaluation must be fair to all students. This can be possible by accurate reflecting of range of expected behaviors as desired by the course objectives. To keep fairness in evaluation, it is also desired that students should know they are to be evaluated.
- Usefulness:Evaluation should be useful for students. Feedback from evaluation must be made available to the students and help them to prove their current strengths and weaknesses. Evaluation should suggest all the needful requirements for their improvement.
