Assessment is a way to judge student learning and teaching effectiveness. It can be formative (ongoing) or summative (end-of-course), with each serving a different purpose. Formative assessments (e.g. non-graded quizzes) help improve instruction while summative assessments (e.g. tests) prove learning. Rubrics are a useful tool to ensure consistent and transparent grading. Effective assessment plans should balance formative and summative assessments and tie to course learning outcomes.
