    6. Ms. De los Reyes advocates assessment for learning. Which will she not likely do?
    A. Formative Assessment
    B. Diagnostic Assessment
    C. Placement Assessment
    D. Summative Assessment
    The answer should be D because "assessment for learning" includes formative, diagnostic, and maybe placement; while summative assessment belongs to the context "assessment of learning" which is different from the rest of the options.

      Summative Assessments are assessments at the end of a unit or quarter not at the end of a lesson

    • justMeYou Oct 15, 2022 @ 21:20

      False information.
      Assessment after the lesson is not yet summative but formative.
      Assessment of learning is conducted at the end of unit/quarter.
