My university uses an online platform called blackboard to assess and interact with our students. It contains the quizzes, assessments and final exams for my students. Their marks are also displayed on blackboard when the marking is done. Online teaching is also conducted through blackboard, so no third party software like google classroom is required.

We are  encouraged to use Google docs as we are using Google classroom to teach our students.  Google docs for quizzes tabulates results and saves it in students personal files.

I teach general English to undergraduate students. One of the tools I use for formative assessment is Forums. Usually, there are 2 stages. First, Ss are supposed to record a one to two-minute presentation about a given topic for example HOW TO USE A,,,  (*depending on the level it could be up to 3 minutes). They're given a week to post their video or web link in their platform. The second part consists of watching 2 presentations and writing a comment to these 2 students. My platform (Blackboard) allows me to embed the rubrics so that my learners know what they will be assessed on. Moreover, when I have to grade their work the rubrics are available for me to tick and get their final grade. Finally, I also write a short comment that shows them I've seen all their work.

** Using Google forms for some quizzes is great. The students can answer and get feedback , they can also get certificates which is very encouraging.

** Posting ideas and opinions to a discussion can be another tool for assessment.

** Doing some tasks on google classroom also works.

Formative assesment has increased last year as we have been doing summative or quantitative. It is very hard to keep it as, in my case, I have 350 students amd I don't remember all their performances, esp. when parents do the activities. I wish I could go back to numbers/marks.

Before in the 2020’s, the online learning is applied for teaching children in preschool. But the responses from parents are low as they are more focused on helping their other children in school. Assessment for the children are made harder due to this. Although some children participated in it, but the assessment method for children in preschool are different from the children in schools.
The problem arises when we get their finished work through photos but most of the work done isn’t their own. The video call are rejected as some couldn’t use their other phone as their other child in school are using in, the parents are absorbed in work with their video conferences and many more situation that contributes on this.

I also use google docs for assessing the children but only 1/4 children participate in the online assessment

The pictures taken, voice messages and videos through whatsapp or video call done are one of the  method to assess the children.

Although we can assess their cognitive and effective domain of development through formative assessment with online assessment, the psychomotor domain of development assessment are vague as we can’t see them do their work by their own effort as well as determine their strength and weaknesses.

During this period of online work, I have been using 'google classroom' assignements and quizzes as  sumative assessment tools. But the formative assessment tool was the ongoing questions through all the stages of the session. It works better when it's shown on an attractive slide show presentation accompanied with pics or videos.

In my opinion, online formative assessment is a must.Without measuring ur students' progress,you will go astray.However difficult this might be, it can be done in many ways and you can depend on trial and error to get the right tools that can be valid and reliable in your context.I find that online quizes espeically those done with Google forms are the best although they take much time to prepare.You still have Kahoot,Flipgrid,Quizlet and many others.Because of the lack of the body language and the immediate feedback, I believe that the flipped classroom is one of the best techniques that you can use to save time for the formative assessment.if you fail to plan your formative assessment,your online teaching will be like getting lost in the middle of the desert with no desination.
