Learning point: “Assessments become formative when the information is 
used to adapt teaching and learning to meet student needs” (Boston, 2002, 
p. 1). 
In (5b), the T who was using RPLE identified where her students had 
trouble, and now, s/he can use that information to make necessary 
instructional adjustments (e.g., reteaching, more practice opportunities
trying different instructional approaches) to improve student success.

(ii) Tailor-made Feedback as Part of Formative Assessment 
When feedback is given as part of formative assessment, the aim is to 
help students identify the gaps between the intended goals and their current 
skills, knowledge or understanding (Boston, 2002; Sadler, 1989). Therefore, 
the feedback should be tailor-made (i.e., it should include specific 
comments related to each of the evaluated criteria) and should consist of 
student-specific suggestions for improvement (Bangert-Drowns et al., 1991; 
Elawar & Corno, 1985). Observation sheets (see Example 2a), checklists, 
video or audio recordings of students are some tools that teachers can use to 
provide formative assessment feedback. 
Example 2a: Observation Sheet as FA Tool 
Level: 
B1-B2 (Grade 8) [Note: The formative assessment exercise was designed for 
Grade 8 students, but Observation sheets can be used with all proficiency levels.] 
Topic: 
Discussing chores 
“What are our usual responsibilities as a family” vs “What we did at the 
weekend” 
Aim(s): 
*To check whether or not Sts use the affirmative, negative and interrogative 
structures correctly in Simple Present Tense and Past Tense
*To uncover whether or not students use the chores expressions correctly (e.g., 
match the verbs ‘do’ and ‘make’ with the chores: do the laundry/ironing vs 
make the bed/a to-do list; know which chores are combined with other verbs: 
dust the furniture, load the dishwasher, mop the floor, take out the garbage, 
vacuum the carpet)
