NCTM Position

“Through formative assessment, students develop a clear understanding of learning targets and receive feedback that helps them to improve. In addition, by applying formative strategies such as asking strategic questions, providing students with immediate feedback, and engaging students in self-reflection, teachers receive evidence of students’ reasoning and misconceptions to use in adjusting instruction. By receiving formative feedback, students learn how to assess themselves and how to improve their own learning. At the core of formative assessment is an understanding of the influence that assessment has on student motivation and the need for students to actively monitor and engage in their learning. The use of formative assessment has been shown to result in higher achievement. The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics strongly endorses the integration of formative assessment strategies into daily instruction.”
