Which of the following best describes formative assessment?

• An assessment given at the end of a course to assign a final grade

• An ongoing process used by teachers to monitor student learning and provide feedback

• A standardized test administered by the state

• A final project submitted at the end of the semester

Which of the following is an example of a summative assessment?

• Exit tickets after a lesson

• Weekly quizzes for feedback

• End-of-term final exam

• Think-pair-share activities

Which technique is most commonly associated with formative assessment?

• Peer review and self-assessment

• National standardized testing

• Final research paper

• College entrance exams

How can AI tools assist teachers in designing assessments?

• By automatically grading only paper-based tests

• By generating personalized quizzes based on student performance data

• By replacing all teacher feedback

• By eliminating the need for any human oversight

Which of the following is a key feedback mechanism in formative assessment?

• Providing grades only at the end of the course

• Giving immediate, actionable feedback during the learning process

• Publishing class rankings

• Assigning a pass/fail mark

What is one way AI can support data analysis in assessments?

• By manually reviewing each student’s written response

• By identifying patterns in student errors to inform instruction

• By ignoring student performance trends

• By only analyzing multiple-choice questions

Which of the following is an ethical consideration when using AI in assessments?

• Ensuring AI systems are completely autonomous

• Protecting student data privacy and security

• Using AI to replace all teacher responsibilities

• Ignoring bias in AI algorithms

Which of the following best differentiates formative from summative assessment?

• Formative assessments are always graded, summative are not

• Summative assessments are used to monitor progress, formative to assign grades

• Formative assessments inform instruction during learning, summative assessments evaluate learning at the end

• Both are used only at the end of a course

Which AI feature can help reduce teacher workload in assessment design?

• Generating random, unaligned questions

• Automatically creating rubrics and grading criteria based on learning objectives

• Ignoring curriculum standards

• Replacing all classroom instruction

What is a potential risk of using AI in educational assessments?

• Increased personalization of learning

• Introduction of bias if the AI is trained on unrepresentative data

• Improved feedback speed

• Enhanced data analysis capabilities
