Types of Assessments

The difference between formative and summative assessment is interesting. According to this module, a Formative assessment is designed to allow students to practice the topics associated with the outcome/objective and is usually ungraded. Summative assessments are designed to have students prove their understanding of the outcome/objective and are usually graded.

My question is... will students take the time and make the effort to execute formative assessments if they're not graded?
