Gauging Student Progress: The Need for Daily Formative Assessment.
- Authors
Manley, Shannon A.; Avrit, Sara L.; Antwiler, Bailie N.
- Abstract
Assessment drives instruction. Teachers need an effective procedure for determining students' learning and mastery of a concept or skill daily. Formative assessment meets this demand. It is designed to take place during instruction while learning is occurring. Formative assessments supply teachers with needed methods to monitor students' learning through a deliberate and intentional process. During the assessment process, teachers provide affirming and corrective feedback to clarify or correct any misunderstandings. The authors argue that formative assessment should be implemented as a daily practice in classrooms given its value in collecting data and effectiveness in driving instruction.
