Seven Strategies of Formative Assessment
Where am I going? 1. Provide a clear and understandable
version of the learning targets.
Good job!
Sloppy work
Proficient
Your calculations are accurate. Take another look at
appropriate units for density.
C-
Excellent!
The students at station two are ready for the lab, they
have their books cleared and their safety glasses on.
You need to label the x-axis, include units with your
label, choose an appropriate scale, show the points you
plotted, and give the graph a title.

Mark each example of descriptive feedback with a D and each
example of evaluative feedback with an E. If you believe it is neither,
mark it with an X.

COMPARING CUBES
___ A. The larger cube has more mass than the smaller cube.
___ B. The larger cube has less mass than the smaller cube.
___ C. The volume of the larger cube is greater than the volume of the
smaller cube.
___ D. The volume of the larger cube is less than the volume of the smaller
cube.
___ E. The density of the larger cube is greater than the density of the
smaller cube.
___ F. The density of the larger cube is less than the density of the smaller
cube.
___ G. The larger cube is more likely to float in water than the smaller
cube.
___ H. The larger cube is less likely to float in water than the smaller cube.
Explain your thinking. Describe the “rule” or reasoning you used to compare
the cubes. 42

??? to ask before
assessing
• Why am I assessing?
• What do I want my students to know?
• How will I find out if they know it?
• How will I communicate the results of
my assessment?
• Who should be involved?
45
In Other Words …
• Clarify your purpose.
• Define your target goals.
• Design your plan - what tool(s) will
I use to determine if students
have met the goals?
• Provide feedback to encourage
learning (Do No Harm!)
• Involve students in their own
assessment. 46
SELF-EVALUATION
• Follow the directions on the handout
“Determining Where I am Now”
• Record your Ratings for #1-9 on the
separate answer sheet
• Wait for directions from a facilitator
