Self-assessment is an important skill to learn by the students so that they can themselves assess their academic work and performance. A number of researches have been done on students’ self-assessment skill and it has been found that high-achieving students tend to under estimate their ability while the low-achieving students over estimate their ability. The teachers must guide the students on how to develop self-assessment skill, individually and in groups. Self-assessment can help a student discover his/her limitations to dealing with course requirement and drives him/her to go for appropriate measures to improve work and performance. Self-assessment adds to a student’s ability to judge him or herself and develops his/her confidence to improve performance to achieve high grades.
