Detailed Explanation & Solution
Under pedagogy and Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE), there is a clear distinction between 'Assessment' and 'Evaluation'. The main purpose of assessment is to improve student learning and make the teaching process effective (e.g., formative or diagnostic assessment), whereas evaluation is a broader concept under which value judgment, certification, and summative decisions of a student's overall performance are made.
