Educational assessment is the process of measuring the knowledge, skills, understanding and attitude of a learner. There are various categories of assessment. Formative and summative is one of them.

Formative assessment is an assessment for learning in which feedback from learners is used to make the teaching, meet the learners’ need. This type of assessment is carried out throughout a learning session and is not necessarily used for grading purpose. Through formative assessment, a teacher can measure students’ current knowledge and skills, so that pedagogy can be adapted to students’ needs.

Summative assessment is an assessment of learning in which learners are evaluated for there knowledge and understanding of a course. This type of assessment is carried out at the end of a learning session or set of learning sessions and is used for grading purpose. Through summative assessment, a teacher can determine up to which extent students are able to learn, what they were supposed to learn.
