Activity for formative assessment:

A. Cite appropriate techniques and tools for formative assessment

1. Response cards -these are either pre-printed or write-on cards. Pre-printed cards have
responses on them such as "Yes" or "No". Write on cards allow students to indicate their
responses in real time.
2. Hand signals- examples are "thumbs up" means understand and can explain it"; "thumbs
sideways" means "I "I'm not completely sure about...": "thumbs down" means "I do not
understand."
3. Games Game-based learning and gamified instruction- are two emerging teaching-learning
practices to drive learning. Game-based learning makes use of a game of any kind to realize a
learning outcome.

B. Explain how scoring rubrics can facilitate formative assessment.

 In formative assessment, teachers give feedback. These feedbacks are made more specific when
they are based on rubrics which enumerate the criteria and describe the expected student's
performance (process and product).

C. Reason why out self-assessment is an important feature of formative assessment.

 self-assessment is a critical component of classroom formative assessment, as it is a key element

of practice that supports students to become independent and self-regulating learners.

D. In what sense is formative assessment compared to "tasting the soup" while summative assessment
in "serving the soup"?

 If you are tasting the soup along the way to see what needs adding... then it's formative. Tasting
will feedback into your planning and guide your next steps. If you are serving the soup to your
guests... then it's summative. Now we'll get feedback on whether the soup matches the desired
results.

E. Distinguish between formative and summative assessment.

 Formative and Summative Assessment? If formative assessment measures how a student is

learning during a course of study, summative assessment is designed to measure “how much” a
student has learned after a unit or course has reached its completion.
REFLECT:

1. As student, have I been given the opportunity for formative assessment?

Yes, as a student we are given the opportunity for formative assessment in our courses formative
assessment is a common practice in education that involves providing our feedback in our learning
progress throughout a course or unit of study, rather than waiting until the end to provide a final grade.

Formative assessment can take many forms, such as quizzes, tests, projects, or discussions, and is
intended to help us identify areas what we need to improve and adjust our learning strategies
accordingly. By providing feedback in a timely manner, formative assessment can support our learning
by helping us to stay on track, identify areas that require more attention, and adjust approach to
learning as needed.

2. As a future teacher, will I make formative assessment an integral part of my teaching?

Yes, as a future teacher I'll make formative assessment an integral part of my teaching. In fact, formative
assessment is often seen as a key component of effective teaching and learning, as it provides feedback
about my students' understanding and progress, and enables them to adjust their instruction to better
meet their needs.

There are many ways that can incorporate formative assessment into teaching , I'll use quizzes to check
for understanding at the end of a lesson, class discussions or group activities to assess students'
understanding and encourage peer-to-peer learning. may i also use more formal assessments, such as
written assignments or projects, to provide students with feedback on their progress and identify areas
where they may need additional support.

Support my students' learning by providing timely feedback, identifying areas what they need additional
support, and adjusting their instruction to better meet their needs. This can ultimately lead to improved
learning outcomes and a more engaging and effective learning experience for students.
