In making an assessment it should be appropriate for the targeted learning goals. It is very
important for it will determine strengths and weaknesses of the students. And also the
teacher should have a variety of assessment methods for students have different learning
styles. It is also very important for the teacher to be wise in making an assessment
method for their students for they are the key roles in the teaching learning process.
