Assessments invites students and teachers to recognize growth and accomplishments as well as identify opportunities for improvement and development. It is not separate from the learning process: It is an integral step on the path to deeper learning. Student self assessment is also an integral part of the learning process to support teacher learning. When students engage in evaluating their own learning, that is articulating, reflecting, internalizing it, and goal setting, they are able to achieve greater comprehension. Assessment, both instructor and student reinforces skills, deepens knowledge, and prepares students for the future. c. What do you agree with in these articles? What do you disagree with?

Frequent grading or feedback is essential. d. In your classroom, what is your preferred method for formative assessments? Summative assessments? I prefer to use frequent formative assessments. The strength of formative assessment lies in the critical information it provides about student comprehension throughout the learning process and the opportunity it gives educators to provide students with timely and action-oriented feedback and to change their own behavior so that every student has an opportunity to learn and relearn.
