Assessment is considered one of the most prominent pillars of the processes of teaching and learning, and it is also considered the beating heart of any ambitious educational system. The state of education cannot be sound unless the assessment system on which that education is based is itself sound.
In the language, "qawwama" a thing means to weigh it, estimate it and give it a particular price, and it also means to straighten it, make it just, and direct it towards what is correct. As for assessment in modern education, it means the process that aims to determine the extent to which educational objectives have been achieved, and the extent of the effectiveness of the entire educational programme in terms of planning, implementation, and educational methods and means.
There is overlap and interweaving between the three concepts (the assessment system, assessment tools, assessment standards), and all of them are influential and decisive in determining the quality of assessment and its distinction within educational systems.
