Q

What does “Formative Evaluation” mean?

A

Formative evaluation is used to monitor learning progress during instruction. Its purpose is to provides continuous feedback to both pupil and teacher concerning learning successes and failures. This type of evolution is an on going process.

It is used throughout the students training, during every instructional period.

Since formative evaluation is directed toward improving leaving and instruction, the results are typically NOT used for assigning course grades.
