Discussion
Which of the following is not correct with respect to formative assessment ?
Answer: A
The statement that is not correct is that formative assessment is to be reported in every quarter of the report card.
Formative assessment is assessment for learning: it is ongoing, often informal, and used to give feedback and adjust teaching while learning is still happening. Its value lies in timely use in the classroom, not in periodic reporting of grades. Reporting at fixed intervals is the role of summative assessment.
The other statements describe formative assessment correctly: it helps the teacher act in time to improve learning, it monitors each student's progress, and any information on a child's learning (observations, questions, work samples, conversations) can feed into it.
