formative assessments

Formative assessments are tools used to evaluate a student’s understanding of a subject, such as General Knowledge, throughout the learning process. Unlike final exams, these assessments are conducted during lessons to provide real-time feedback. They can include quizzes, discussions, or reflections that help teachers identify areas where students may struggle and adjust their teaching accordingly. This ongoing feedback allows students to improve and deepen their understanding before they reach a final assessment, promoting continuous learning rather than just preparing for one-time tests.
