its main purpose is to

grade and certify students' achievement. Examples are exams, graded
projects, and papers.

advance students in their learning1'. This can also be described
as Assessment AS Learning.

Assessment FOR learning usually occurs throughout the teaching

and learning process to clarify student learning and understanding.

Assessment AS Learning is the use of ongoing self-assessment by

students in order to monitor their own learning, which is “characterized
by students reflecting on their own learning and making adjustments so
that they achieve deeper understanding.
