One of these ATTs is informed by formative and summative assessment. Assessment needs to be used to both assess, monitor and review learning and includes tracking student performance and progress in relation to the Assessment Objectives, content and concepts associated with our own subject and the Core of the IB programme (whether that be MYP, DP, or CP). The formal assessment in the IB Diploma is all summative assessment whether it is the Internal Assessment, final External Assessment or the IB Core. However, tracking student progress in relation to their self-management skills as well as the knowledge and skills required to be successful in these assessments.
The IBO reminds teachers that assessment should be designed to inform the teacher and learner in order to accommodate the needs of the learner. The formative assessment is one which occurs throughout a lesson or unit and may take a variety of forms. A teacher may determine what students know by question and answer formats, checklists, or by paper and pencil assignments. Likewise, games such as Kahoot and Jeopardy may assist in similar data collection. The informed teacher can utilize the results of the formative assessment to re-engage or to modify the teaching plans to meet the individual needs of the students. (courses.lumenlearning.com)
