Test scores are an example of measurement, and conveying the "meaning" of those scores is evaluation. If a student achieves a score of 75 percent (measurement) on a final classroom examination, he or she may be told that the score resulted in a failure (evaluation) to pass the course. Evaluation can take place without measurement, as in, for example, a teacher's appraisal of a student's correct oral response with words like "excellent insight, Fernando!
