This document provides information about formative and summative assessment. It includes definitions and key differences between the two types of assessment. Formative assessment involves ongoing evaluations, reviews and observations to improve instruction and provide feedback. Summative assessment evaluates programs and makes judgments after instruction is complete. The document also discusses the benefits of formative assessment, how it is used to guide learning, and samples of formative assessment from Tunisian textbooks.

Assessment is a key element of any learning program; it is through assessment that we know our students, and know what they have learnt; it is the quality control mechanism for our graduates; it is an important feedback loop on the effectiveness of our teaching. Assessment is central to learning design, and yet it is often the thing we think of last. This presentation highlights some of the key ideas driving assessment practice, and raise questions regarding assessment strategy and design such as:
What makes good assessment?
What are some principles of a sound assessment strategy, and why
Some new ways forward – what will you do differently?
Assessment plays an important role in the teaching-learning process. Some of the important types of assessment are
Practice-based assessment
Evidence-based assessment
Performance-based assessment
Examination based assessment
CONTINIOUS AND COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT IN EDUCATION Shisira Bania
Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) refers to a system of school-based evaluation of students that covers all aspects of students development. It is a developmental process of assessment which emphasizes on two fold objectives. These objectives are continuity in evaluation and assessment of broad based learning and behavioral outcomes on the other.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

- Groups of 4 to 6 participants read mixed up notes to develop definitions
of the concepts: Formative / Summative Evaluation and the major
features of difference between both of them.
- on-going assessments, reviews, and observations in a classroom.
- used to evaluate the effectiveness of instructional programs and
services at the end of an academic year or at a pre-determined time.
- to improve instructional methods and student feedback throughout the
teaching and learning process.
- to make a judgment of student competency -- after an instructional
phase is complete.
- given periodically to determine at a particular point in time what
students know and do not know.
- provides the information needed to adjust teaching and learning while
they are happening.
- generally associated only with standardized tests such as state
assessments.
- spread out and occur after instruction every few weeks, months, or once
a year.
- It's not teachers just collecting information/data on student learning; it's
what they do with the information they collect.
- It is a continuous assessment that allows teachers to determine
individual student needs and to adjust instruction as appropriate.
- It is often used when students are ready to demonstrate achievement of
curriculum objectives.
- The purposes are to identify aspects of performance that need to
improve and to offer corrective suggestions.
- It need not make a judgment.
-They are assessments for learning a opposed to assessment of learning.
-They produce non-threatening Results

Benefits of formative evaluation
The Assessment Reform Group in the UK has set out 10 principles for
formative assessment. Among these principles are that assessment for
learning should:
• be part of effective planning of teaching and learning
• focus on how students learn
• be recognised as central to classroom practice
• be regarded as a key professional skill for teachers
• be sensitive and constructive because any assessment has an
emotional impact
• take account of the importance of learner motivation
• enable learners to receive constructive guidance about how to
improve
• develop learners’ capacity for self-assessment so that they can
become reflective and self-managing
• recognise the full range of achievements of all learners

Bouzid. July 2009) ~ HANDOUTS
Word doc.3:
Formative assessment is a means of communication between teacher and
student, guiding the teacher toward appropriate instructional decisions
and providing encouraging feedback to the student. You’ve probably
been using all kinds of formative assessments without realizing that they
were called, which is something that often happens in education and
communication. But when we give a name to something, such as
formative assessment, we can transform what we are doing intuitively
into an intentional practice. Our awareness of formative assessment will
make us better communicators and planners.
Formative assessment is assessment that is meant to guide both teachers
and students toward the next steps in the learning process. Formative
assessment differs from summative assessment in that summative
assessment has an air of finality. When we think of summative
assessments, we think of unit tests, final exams, standardized tests,
entrance exams, and the like. Although any assessment instrument may
be used as formative assessment (to guide learning), those just mentioned
are usually used more for ranking and sorting students than for informing
them (and their teacher) about their learning needs. Thus, the difference
between formative and summative assessment depends largely upon
how the results of the test or project are going to be used.
There’s another difference, and that has to do with the attitude that
students have toward formative assessment: formative assessment does
not result in a grade “that counts.” Therefore, students approach it with
less anxiety, competitiveness, and defensiveness. The downside is that
some students might not do their best on formative assessments, believing
that they “don’t count.” The unfortunate view that students should give a
school-time task their best shot only if it will figure into their report card
grade is ingrained in our society and works against a more authentic view
of what education is really all about.
Formative assessment leads to follow-through; summative assessment
ends with a grade. To understand the difference between formative and
summative assessment, you need to undergo a paradigm shift in what
assessment in school is all about. Traditionally, we think of assessment
(testing) as a means of putting “closure” on learning, as though learning
is something that should have closure.
Earlier, I said that any assessment can be formative assessment. Whether
an assessment is formative depends on how the teacher and student are

Bouzid. July 2009) ~ HANDOUTS
going to use the results. Consider this example: A student takes a
traditional spelling test. She gets four words wrong. If this assessment is
to be used formatively, the student would be expected not only to learn
the misspelled words, but, more importantly, to employ an effective
method for learning them. For example, the misspelled words may
conform to a rule that the student needs to learn, or they may fit into a
pattern of words that are spelled similarly; they may be exceptions to a
rule; they may be learned through a visual or mnemonic. The point is that
the traditional spelling test—any traditional test—may be turned into a
formative assessment by including a meaningful follow-up component,
one that goes beyond mere correction of wrong answers.
Responses to Formative Assessments
Teachers can use the results of formative assessments to adjust their
teaching strategies and to match students with appropriate materials and
learning conditions. Formative assessment information can determine:
♦ How to group students
♦ Whether students need alternative materials
♦ Whether students are ready to advance
♦ The amount of time to be allocated to a particular learning experience,
such as reading and understanding a document
♦ Whether students are understanding a poem’s literal level, before
moving on to its interpretative possibilities
♦ What concepts may need to be retaught to the entire class, or to certain
students.
If a teacher does not intend to regroup, reteach, scaffold, or change any
learning conditions as a result of formative assessment information, then
there’s no point in doing any formative assessment. Therefore, teachers
using formative assessment need an array of alternatives (methods and
materials). If the goal is to cover, get through, finish up, putting every
student through the samepaces at the same rate with the same resources,
then formative assessment does not achieve its purpose.
