Identify the statement that could be considered formative assessment?

• Is a fluid, ongoing process influenced by student need

• Viewed as an activity completed after the teaching and learning has taken place

• Measures results for reporting to parents

• An evaluation of how well a student has completed an assignment

Select the statement that would not count as formative assessment

• "Cold calling" students during discussion time

• A plenary that consists of an exit test question for students to write what they learned that day

• A teacher walking around listening to students discussing work

• Carried out when teaching has been completed to assess learning.

A teacher asks 3 questions at the end of the period about how lungs work & students write answers onto an exit slip. After reading the answers the teacher could make any of the following decisions. Identify the one that could have the least impact on student learning (from a formative assessment perspective).

• All students have a general understanding of the parts of the lungs so she plans to move on tomorrow.

• The teacher decides to spend another lesson on lungs based on number of errors from the exit test

• The teacher marks the 3 questions and students are given a 1-3 score based on number correct.

• The teacher writes one piece of feedback on each exit slip regarding what that student needs to work on next.
