Assessment Definitions
Formative assessment: The goal of formative assessment is to monitor student learning to
provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by
students to improve their learning. More specifically, formative assessments:
Help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and target areas that need work; and
Help faculty recognise where students are struggling and address problems immediately
Formative assessments are generally low stakes, which means that they have low or no point
value.
Examples of formative assessments include asking students to:
Draw a concept map in class to represent their understanding of a topic;
Submit one or two sentences identifying the main point of a lecture; and
Turn in a research proposal for early feedback.
Summative assessment: The goal of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at

the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark.Summative
assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value. Examples of
summative assessments include:
A mid unit assessment;
A final project;
A paper; and/or
A role play
Information from summative assessments can be used formatively when students or faculty use it
to guide their efforts and activities in subsequent courses.
Assignment:a task or piece of work allocated to someone as part of a job or course of study.
Project: an individual or collaborative enterprise that is carefully planned to achieve a particular

aim.
Written Response: In a response submission, you do assess the item youve been assigned to
observe, but you add your personal reaction and impressions to the report. The steps for
completing response submission are:
Observe or read the piece for an initial understanding;
Re-read the piece and stop to reflect often;
Record your thoughts and impressions in notes;
Develop an opinion; and
Write an outline.
Role Play: Role-playing refers to role training where people rehearse situations in preparation for a
future performance and to improve their abilities within a role. The most common examples are
occupational training role-plays and educational role-play exercises.
