Instructional assessment plays a crucial role in enhancing student learning and teachers' instructional practices. Despite extensive research on teaching assessment, there remains to be a significant gap between theory and practice. This review employs qualitative research methods to explore strategies for improving student learning and teacher instruction through enhanced teaching assessment practices, with a focus on specific and practical strategies. The study found that improvements in curriculum assessment strategies can effectively enhance both teaching quality and student learning outcomes. This study aims to enrich relevant educational theories and substantially improve both student learning outcomes and teacher instructional practices through the implementation of practical, strategy-based assessment methods.
