FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT
What is it?“When incorporated into classroom practice,
the formative assessment process provides information needed to adjust teaching and learning while they are still happening. The process serves as practice for the student and a check for understanding during the learning process. The formative assessment process guides teachers in making decisions about future instruction.”
