Skill Assessment
Following the meaning of “Amrit” ( अमृत ) we believe in getting to the essence of assessment. We believe there is only one fundamental purpose of assessment in education: to establish and understand where learners are in an aspect of their learning at the time of assessment. This usually means establishing what they know, understand and can do. When this single purpose is recognised and taken as the starting point for thinking about assessment, it becomes a unifying rather than fragmenting influence in the field.
Understanding assessment in this way helps us to see that assessments can be undertaken at varying degrees of diagnostic detail, using a variety of observation methods, and that the results of an assessment process can be used and interpreted in different ways.
