teacher assessments

Grading the graders

Teacher assessments are evaluations of student learning conducted by teachers rather than through standardized tests.

These may include classroom observations, portfolios, projects, or ongoing coursework used to measure progress and inform instruction.

In some educational systems, teacher assessments formally count toward grades or qualifications: Her final mark combined exam scores with teacher assessments.
