Diagnostic assessment informs instructional planning...

Diagnostic assessment informs instructional planning, formative assessment regulates learning through actionable feedback, and summative assessment certifies achievement under explicit criteria. High-stakes exams (TOEFL/IELTS) evaluate proficiency domains, while classroom assessment requires alignment between objectives, evidence, and evaluative descriptors for valid judgments. Select the correct statement.


A

Alignment between objectives and assessment procedures is discretionary, provided learning outcomes are stated with sufficient descriptive clarity.


B

Diagnostic assessment is intended for postcertification monitoring, operating independently of instructional design or pedagogical sequencing.


C

Summative assessment excludes performancebased tasks, restricting evaluation to fixedresponse formats for reliability and comparability.


D

TOEFL and IELTS function as curricular frameworks, structuring teaching sequences rather than measuring externally validated proficiency.


E

Formative assessment enhances learning by providing timely, criterion-referenced feedback that supports monitoring, adjustment and sustained progress.
