Formative
Updated: Jan 13
Formative is a real-time formative assessment platform that helps educators monitor learner understanding as learning happens. It allows teachers to create assignments with a wide range of question types, including multiple-choice, short response, drawing, graphing, file uploads, and audio or video responses.
For educators and trainers, Formative is especially powerful during live lessons and practice activities. Teachers can view learner responses in real time, provide immediate feedback, and intervene when misconceptions arise. This makes learning visible and supports responsive teaching rather than end-of-lesson evaluation.
Integrated with Newsela, Formative also supports literacy-rich and content-aligned learning experiences. It works well for skills-based learning, inquiry tasks, and continuous assessment. By emphasising feedback, iteration, and progress tracking, Formative shifts assessment from grading to learning—supporting deeper understanding and learner growth in both classroom and digital environments.
