One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Meaning and scope of measurement and evaluation

Measurement and evaluation are foundational ideas in education because they explain how learning is quantified and how value judgments are made from evidence. For examination purposes, you must clearly distinguish measurement from evaluation, understand their relationship, and know the major areas where they are applied in teaching, learning, guidance, and educational decision-making.
