(1) The process of figuring out a physical objects, characteristics
and size is known as measurement. On the other hand, evaluation is a continuous
process of quantification and qualitative interpretation based on value
judgments.
(2) Quantitative observations-observations that may be stated
numerically are accounted for via measurement. On the other hand, evaluation
incorporates both quantitative and qualitative findings.
(3) Measurement is assigning numbers to a person or thing in
accordance with predetermined guidelines. In contrast, assessment entails the
attribution of grades, levels, or symbols in accordance with predetermined
norms.
(4) While measurement focuses on one or more traits or aspects of a
person or item, evaluation considers all factors, including cognitive,
emotional and psycho motor development.
(5) Measurement examine something’s size in numerical terms,
including how much, how tall, how quickly, how hot, how far away, and how
little it is. Evaluation, in contrast, determines how well something is by
bringing measure or value judgment to the measurement.
(6) While it is impossible to establish logical assumptions about
the learner when measuring, this is possible when evaluating.
(7) Measurement employs instruments or measuring devices to do the
task, therefore it requires less time and energy. In contrast, assessment
necessitates observation and involves making a value judgment, which takes time
and effort.
(8) As far as scope is concerned, measuring is constrained since it
only considers a few characteristics of personality or trait. However,
assessment takes into account every aspect before making a value determination.
Furthermore, measurement is part of the evaluation. Its reach is hence wider.
(9) Evaluation is objectively focused, whereas measurement is
content based.
