Whiteboards and wikis can support formative assessment in classrooms. Whiteboards allow for instant assessment of student understanding, common errors, and misunderstandings while keeping students engaged. They provide a non-disruptive way for students to communicate with teachers. Wikis also support formative assessment by allowing students to select, reflect on, and review artifacts that demonstrate their learning and tell their learning stories. Both tools provide formative feedback that can enhance the learning process when used primarily for aiding teaching rather than grading.
