An Online Psychometric Assessment Test is a normalized device used to quantify a person's mental characteristics, like mental capacities, character qualities, inspirations, and conduct propensities, through a computerized stage. In recruitment, education, and personal development, these tests are frequently used to assess a candidate's suitability for a position, forecast their performance on the job, or…
Critical Thinking Test Assessment A Critical Thinking Test Assessment is a significant instrument for assessing a person's capacity to break down data, make contemplated decisions, and tackle complex issues. These tests are especially beneficial in various professional and educational contexts. In…

In the Philippines, a wide range of agricultural technologies were already introduced and some are being used successfully by several farmers. However, the adoption of some areas is still poor. Since the main livelihood of people in North-western Cagayan is farming, there is a need to assess the adoption rate of the farmers to new and improved farming technologies.
This Theme sets out the guiding principles which underpin assessment, offering practical advice and useful resources. Assessment is a fundamental aspect of the student experience. Students learn from assessment activities, interact with staff and peers, and gain feedback on their progress and performance. Assessment enables them to reflect and continually build on their learning.
Marius Wehner und Lynn Schmodde von der Wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf berichten von ihrer Forschung zu Learning Analytics. Im Verbundprojekt LADi haben sie Diskriminierungspotenziale und Bias in den Algorithmen untersucht sowie die Wahrnehmung der Lernenden von Beurteilungen durch Learning Analytics. Interviewer in Folge 11 des DINItus Podcasts ist Erik Reidt vom ZIM/Multimediazentrum der HHU Düsseldorf.
The study was conducted to determine the status of the current stocks of the S. varius in Lianga Bay, Surigao del Sur from July 2016 to August 2019. Some variables in population dynamics, such as asymptotic length (L∞), growth coefficient (K), mortality rate (Z, F and M) and the exploitation rate of S. varius were estimated from length frequencies analyses by means of FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessment Tools (FISAT). Results showed that the growth performance index (φ) was 3.79, asymptotic length (L∞) was 202.65mm and growth coefficient (K) was predicted to be 0.15yr-1. Total mortality (Z) for S. varius was 1.04yr-1 with fishing mortality (F) and natural mortality (M) of 0.74yr-1 and 1.90yr-1, respectively. The increased of fishing mortality over natural mortality, decreased of size of the catch, inflated current exploitation rates (E) of 0.7 which was higher than the optimum level of exploitation (E= 0.50). The Emax, and E10 were 1.29, and 1.55 respectively which interpreted as overexploited. It is therefore to recommend for immediate action in ecological, economical and legal aspects in the fishery of S. varius in Lianga Bay Surigao del Sur, Philippines.
Research shows that grades are often not a good reflection of student learning and growth, and that being graded can be stressful for students. In addition, many traditional grading practices can exacerbate existing academic inequalities. We encourage faculty to design assessments that directly support student learning first, with their evaluative role considered secondarily.
We have compiled some options for creating assessment activities and policies which are learning-focused, while also being equitable and compassionate. The suggestions are loosely grouped by expected faculty time commitment. Many suggest ways faculty can provide students with skills practice, feedback on their performance, and opportunities for reflection on their learning processes and growth. In all cases, the suggestions below assume some course design fundamentals including assessments aligned with course learning objectives.
