Confusing to Differentiate Assessment As/For/Of Learning


In the PETA course of this week's, can I find out that there are 3 types of assessment i.e. assessment as learning, assessment of learning and assessment for learning. I am still confused as to distinguish between assessment as learning, assessment of learning and assessment for learning. But, there are many forms of assessment, not just paper and pencil test but there are exhibition, performances, presentations, portfolios and simulation, etc.
Assessment as learning places more emphasis on active learning for students. In it, students can do a self assessment, peer assessment, and meta cognition. Well I've found this when I did a micro teaching on the PETA course and also practice giving instruction in courses UET (Use English in Teaching). By the time I and my friends do micro teaching, I and my friends a group doing peer assessment to another group that was doing a micro teaching. I and my friends one group and then assessing whether the methods used in other groups while practicing in front of the class learning right or not and achieve learning objectives or not. From that judgment, and I friends one group did a reflection of what the corrections/feedback, so that in the future we can use the appropriate method of learning. Whereas at the time of the presentation in front of UET after class to practice giving instructions in learning mathematics, I can make students active and understand the instructions which I gave to tackle the problem and so on. It is part of self assessment. In addition, I was able to do a peer assessment also if Wirman, Mamet and Dasrizal good in giving instruction math problems using the English language.
As for the assessment of learning, I am more leaning on teacher assessments by attaching evidence of learning outcomes of their students. We can found it in the end of the study. For example, a lecturer at the courses collecting portfolios IELL as evidence of progress assessment of their students. The latter, an assessment for learning is more impact continues. I found this on the circle in the Bahasa Indonesia course  in second term when we do a reflection in every two chapter ” Bumi Manusia” book. Well, my friends, to be honest I still doubt with examples that I have to say above. Please amended if there is misrepresentation. Let's practice direct peer assessment. Thanks
