Assessment is an integral part of instruction, as it determines whether or not the goals of education are being met. Today's students need to know not only the basic reading and arithmetic skills, but also skills that will allow them to face a world that is continually changing. They must be able to think critically and to analyse. Assessments give students an accurate picture of where they stand. This works as a catalyst and pillar for learners by supporting them to deliver better. So, the assessment is not how much the student know but how well he/she know it. But due to the pandemic of COVID-19, assessments turns to be online assessment. Online assessment is effective, friendly- environment solution with saving a lot of time and easier to be prepared.
