Thus, this assessment is an ongoing process that involves putting together a series of quick-fire questions to monitor the student’s progress during the course. By adopting this method of evaluation, teachers can make it possible to identify when the student is struggling and where to provide the right support. These methods track the students’ understanding levels on the go without waiting for the end of the course. As these methods are not assessed against predefined standards, they are considered as having a low or no point value.
