• Formative assessment should be used during the learning process.
• The goal is to gather data that will inform your teaching.– Does material need to be retaught?– Are your students ready to move on?– Are your students ready for a test, quiz, essay,
etc.?• Ideally, you will use this data to change
what/how you teach during the next lesson.

• Formal formative assessments give you specific data about where individual students are.
