This document discusses the meanings and differences between measurement and evaluation. Measurement is defined as assigning a score to represent a person's traits, characteristics or behavior, and provides information to guide decision making. Evaluation focuses on grades and other classroom factors beyond course content mastery. It is an inclusive process that involves gathering information, processing it, forming judgements, and making decisions. The key difference is that measurement aims to numerically value things, while evaluation justifies and interprets data in a qualitative and quantitative way to form an opinion or conclusion.
