Tests and evaluations are an important aspect of a student’s learning process. They show you where the student is in the process and where he or she still needs to go. Testing can be summative or formative. Summative testing is about pass/fail, usually based on a grade. Formative testing provides guidance and promotes the learning process.

There are various IT tools to support your chosen testing method. Software can make testing more effective and efficient, reducing and simplifying the review process for teachers and immediately showing students whether they understand the material well enough.
