The Council of Chief State School Officers' (CCSSO) definition of formative assessment states: "Formative assessment is a process used by teachers and students during instruction that provides feedback to adjust ongoing teaching and learning to improve students’ achievement of intended instructional outcomes." This brief paper provides short examples and non-examples of formative assessment practice, along with more extended examples of formative assessment practice to illustrate the attributes of effective formative assessment and their interconnectedness. The extended examples have been collected from teachers observations conducted in a variety of schools across the US."
