    Educational assessments are used in schools to track student growth and performance, and come in formative and summative forms. Psychological assessments determine cognitive and non-cognitive characteristics and are used by guidance counselors to aid student development. Assessments can be paper-and-pencil tests requiring single answers, or performance-based tasks with open-ended responses. Teacher-made tests measure classroom learning while standardized tests have fixed administration and are normed against sample groups.
