A formative assessment is defined as a course of methods deployed by teachers to conduct in-process student evaluations of their academic progress, comprehension, and learning
needs during a unit or course. The aim of summative assessments, on the other hand, is to
evaluate the student by comparing their progress against a set benchmark; this assessment has a
high point value.

Summary
Formative learning focuses on teaching students on goal setting in learning so that they
are able to identify their growth, evaluate their work, and mark strategies that will help them
improve. In this type of assessment, individual students measure themselves against their goals
as well as other indicators such as previous work and other students work, or a set rubric. It is
an ongoing process that may be long-term, and in some cases, it is included in the daily lesson
plan. Feedback mechanisms are often immediate (Dixson & Worrell, 2016). Its main objective
is to focus on the student and help them internalize their goals as they reflect on their own
understanding wile evaluating the quality of their work based on their set goals. Strategies that
are often used include metacognition, self-evaluation, peer reviews and reflective journals.
Summative assessments compare the performance of a student against a set standard. In
this case, the curriculum, teachers, and the educative program are measured. It often occurs at
the end of the set curriculum or at the same time every school year. Its purpose it to give an
overall view of the student’s status and evaluate the effectiveness of the learning environment.
It is designed to be uniform and brief, often giving room for limited data to analyze specific
student problems (Dixson & Worrell, 2016). Summative assessments can be done through a
common rubric or a set of test questions. This type of assessment is often standardized such
