Special Topics Discussion Subscribers,

We would like to hear from you.

What has been your experience with formative assessment?
Do you use formative assessment strategies in your classroom?
Have you done research -- qualitative or quantitative, including  
classroom research -- on the effects of formative assessment? What  
did you find?
Are you satisfied with using only summative (standardized per-post  
NRS-required) assessment?
Do we need to pay more attention to formative assessment in the U.S.?

Our discussion ends soon so please post your answers or questions now.

Thanks.
