There are many ways to assessing the students, however, I don't think that an assessment will meassure or tell the knowledge of each student in an appropriate way


On the other hand, we have the alternative assessments, which depends on using performance tasks that let students demonstrate what they can actually do with language.


Some of their features are: 

·         Assessment is based on authentic tasks that demonstrate learners' ability to accomplish communication goals.

·         Instructor and learners focus on communication, not on right and wrong answers.

·         Learners help to set the criteria for successful completion of communication tasks.

·         Learners have opportunities to assess themselves and their peers.
