Correct Answer - Option 4 : assigning student grade

 Formative evaluation:

  • Formative evaluation is typically conducted during the development or improvement of a program or course. 
  • The goal of formative assessment is to monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning.
  • More specifically, formative assessments:
    • help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and target areas that need work
    • help faculty recognize where students are struggling and address problems immediately

Formative assessments are generally low stakes, which means that they have low or no point value. Examples of formative assessments include asking students to:

  • draw a concept map in class to represent their understanding of a topic
  • submit one or two sentences identifying the main point of a lecture
  • turn in a research proposal for early feedback

 Summative evaluation:

  • The process of arriving at a grade for a student (either for a test or assignment or for an entire course) is known as a summative assessment.
  • Summative assessments (e.g., exams or term papers) are formal, usually graded, and focused on letting students show a range of skills and knowledge.

Hence, assigning student grades is not a part of formative evaluation.
