Section 4.2 | Summative assessment

Usually when someone mentions 'summative assessment', I could not help but think back to the time when I was in primary and secondary school, when most (if not all) summative assessments were carried out with pen and paper. This is not to say that form of assessing students' academic performance is antiquated and out of touch with reality; I don't believe I am experienced enough on the matter to make such a comment just yet. However, this does leave room for innovation and new methods that can achieve more or less the same goals that traditional assessment methods aspire to achieve.

One of such examples is Google Forms, for which I have created a sample quiz linked here.
