FORMATIVE EVALUATION
Ongoing assessment of learners achievement while the term, course or instructional program is in progress.

Formative evaluation is the assessment made during the instructional phase to let the teacher know about learners progress in learning and what more is to be done.

Formative evaluation is conducted to monitor the instructional process, to determine whether learning is taking place as planned.RL Ebel and DA Frisbac 1986

Purposes of formative evaluation


Feedback to the students, not the assignment of a grade The gathering of data during the time of program guides the developmental process Continuous and immediate feedback

Characteristics of formative evaluation


focuses on molecular analysis of instructional material cause seeking its design is exploratory monitors teaching learning strategies

Advantages of formative evaluation


It helps in forming, modifying and improving the program before it is completed. It helps to find many things that can be changed It is helpful for the immediate decision making

Advantages of formative evaluation


It makes teaching more effective More emphasis is on the achievement rather than objectives. It also provides ample opportunities to learners to have mastery in content

SUMMATIVE EVALUATION
assigning a grade for learners achievement at the end of term, semester, course or instructional program

Summative evaluation typically comes at the end of a course of instruction. It is designed to determine the extent to which the instructional objectives have been achieved and is used primarily to assign grade or certifying pupil mastery of intended outcome.- NE Gronlund 1985

Summative evaluation is done at the conclusion of instruction and measures the extent to which students have attained the desired outcomes W Weersma and Gurs 1990

Formative evaluation tested more frequently Scoring is based on criterion referenced approach reports scores on each task Summative evaluation tested less frequently Scoring is based on norm referenced approach reports in terms of total scores

Evaluation helps students
