Now that I recognize the value of the three types of assessment tools, diagnositc, formative, and summative, I will try to implement each type into my lessons. This will help me tailor the lesson to the students' needs (diagnostic), determine which topics I need to focus on more (formative), but also allow the student immediate feedback on their comprehension and value of the lesson (summative).
I have also learned that when I administer a test online, it is helpful to time it and shuffle the questions and/or answers to prevent cheating and ensure adequate assessment.
