Abstract: This paper investigates the role of assessment in promoting differentiated instruction and individualized learning. With the increasing recognition of learning diversity in classrooms, the need for instruction tailored to individual learning needs is vital. Thus, this study explores how formative and summative assessments can be utilized to shape teaching strategies, adjust learning materials, and create personalized learning experiences. It also highlights how assessment results can influence educators' ability to design, implement, and evaluate differentiated instructional practices. A mixed-method approach involving quantitative data from test scores and qualitative data from interviews and classroom observations was adopted. The results revealed significant improvements in learning outcomes with the use of differentiated instruction informed by regular assessments. This research underscores the necessity of evolving assessment techniques in the current educational landscape.
