The findings of the study showed that the implementation of student assessment practice in light of the requirements of competence-based assessment was low. Among the major factors encountered during the implementation of student assessment were: Lack of technical support from Zone education officials in line with assessment requirements, Lack of experience and understanding about competence-based Assessment practice, Lack of students’ awareness about competence-based assessment and Lack of teachers’ motivation and commitment towards competence-based assessment. Finally, the recommendations were forwarded, Technical supports from Zone education officials in line with assessment requirements was one of the major factors which hinder the student assessment practice. The way of the Technical support and the number of frequency giving technical support for college teachers and administrators do not match in the study area and this affects the implementation of students’ assessment practice.

In addition to this, government bodies and stake holders have be contributed to solve the lack of Technical support from Zone Educational Office in line with assessment requirements. | en_US |
