Continuous Formative Assessment (CFA) Using Cloud-Based Collaborative Resources


Continuous Formative Assessment (CFA) is a teaching technique that employs synchronous collaborative web-based documents to perform continuous, real-time formative assessments of student understanding so that teachers can adjust their instruction to address the immediate needs of their students.  The technique provided in this session has the potential to engage all learners all the time as they provide feedback, data, quick-writes and analyses in response to instructor prompts.  Using CFA, professors have the opportunity to observe all student contributions as they are made.

Facilitated by Norm Herr (Secondary Education) and Mike Rivas (Secondary Education)
