INSTRUCTION

PURPOSE OF ASSESSMENT

“We assess to inform instruction and


promote learning, not solely to judge it.”

“Adopt an attitude that assessment is FOR


students, not OF students as an end in
itself.”
FORMATIVE
ASSESSMENT
• Evaluates real-time learning; enables teachers to
adjust instruction and provide students
feedback
• “Teachers’ efficiency with formative assessment
is a key to students’ proficiency with summative
assessment.”
• Tip: Assess all students before assisting
individuals to avoid assessment misconceptions
from interacting with only a few students
(Ginsburg, 2012).
