Abstract
In the first part of this article, in ETp Issue 128, I used the following soup-cooking analogy to explain the difference between formative and summative assessment:
Formative assessment occurs when the cook tastes the soup in the kitchen, whereas summative assessment occurs when the patron tastes the soup in the restaurant.
Here, I would like to reflect on the effectiveness of some activities that employ Assessment for Learning (AfL) and Assessment as Learning (AaL) strategies (both part of formative assessment). I have used all these activities in my own classes.
