Which assessment will be given to learners during the course of instruction rather than after it is completed?

Formative assessment is carried out during the course of instruction, not after it, to guide learning while it is still in progress.

It gives continuous feedback so teaching can be adjusted then and there.

Diagnostic assessment is used before or during difficulty to locate the causes of persistent problems.

Summative assessment comes after instruction is complete to grade final achievement.

Placement assessment is done before instruction to assign a learner to the right level.

Formative assessment underlies assessment for learning, whereas summative reflects assessment of learning.
