"I've just thought of 'assessment'. But I think 'evaluation' is a wider concept."

Assessment is more "specific" in terms of rating, I guess. Performance evaluation versus knowledge assessment.

agree  Kirk Bradham: Testing and Evaluation is good' however, should drop off the "of knowledge" portion as it is a given that you are testing knowledge.

Knowledge assessment and evaluation


Explanation:
Please read the articles about what is meant by assessment and evaluation.

http://www.asyluminc.com/mb_manual/MK-int3.htm
http://www.hcc.cc.il.us/committees/assessment/2.2.pdf

To quote:
We evaluate, or place a grade value on, the degree to which a student has demonstrated proficiency in the discipline area.
Assessment is quite different because it seeks to measure growth on the student’s part, not simply to evaluate student proficiency. To put it another way, assessment asks the student: What do you
know now (at the end of a class, course, or curriculum) that you did not know before (at the beginning of that class, course, or curriculum)?

Example sentence(s):
  • Assessment and evaluation are needed in order to compare initial objectives with measurable outcomes to determine course effectiveness.
