Which of the following is not an example of 'Assessment of Learning'?

Correct option is C

Solution: Correct Answer: (c) Anecdotal Records
Explanation:
‘Assessment of Learning’ is a summative assessment that measures how much a learner has learned at the end of a teaching period. It usually takes the form of tests, exams, or grades that judge performance.
However, Anecdotal Records are qualitative observations maintained by teachers to record a student’s behavior, progress, or learning patterns.
They are diagnostic and formative in nature — used to understand the learner’s growth and help improve learning — not to grade or judge performance.
Hence, Anecdotal Records are not an example of Assessment of Learning.
