Assessment Summative Versus Formative

What is Assessment Assessment measures if and how students are learning and if the teaching methods are effectively relaying the intended messages.

Types of Assessment Summative Formative

Summative Assessment Summative assessment takes place after the learning has been completed and provides information and feedback that sums up the teaching and learning process. Typically, no more formal learning is taking place at this stage other than incidental learning, which might take place through the completion of projects and assignments.

Formative Assessment Formative assessment provides feedback and information during the instructional process, while learning is taking place. Formative assessment measures student progress as the learning process unfolds. It can also be used to evaluate the progress of the instructor.

Examples of Summative Assessment Examinations (major high stakes exams) Final examination (a truly summative assessment) Term papers (drafts submitted throughout the semester would be a formative assessment) Final Projects (project phases submitted at various completion points could be formatively assessed) Portfolios (could also be assessed during it’s development as a formative assessment) Performances (rehearsals would be formative) Student evaluation of the course Instructor self evaluation

Examples of Formative Assessment Observations during in class activities Feedback during lecture Homework exercises as review for exams Journals of reflection that are reviewed periodically during the semester Question and answer sessions, both formal and informal Conferences between the instructor and students at various points in the semester In class activities during which students informally present results Student feedback; collected by periodically asking specific questions about the instruction; self-evaluation of performance and progress.

Garden Metaphor Summative assessment: measuring the growth of a plant every 6 months. Formative assessment: evaluating the plant’s progress each time it is watered.

Questions 1) Do you think that this course is mostly summative, mostly formative, or a reasonable balance of both? 2) What do you think could be done differently to improve the assessment process of this course?

Questions 3) How does the assessment process of this course compare to the assessment process in other classes in this department? 4) Do you think that weekly worksheets and quizzes that count toward your grade are basically summative or formative?

Questions 5) What do you think about a process in which you are given the questions and answers before taking the quiz? 6) Do you think that you’re learning? Why or why not?
