Over the last two decades, formative assessment elements have been introduced into the field of learning and teaching in primary and secondary school. Many teachers have taken up this didactic approach. Formative assessment highlights the importance of the student‘s active role in building quality and lasting knowledge, with the teacher supporting the student by constantly checking the student‘s progress, regularly providing the student with feedback, and adapting or guiding the lessons accordingly. In the light of a safe and stimulating learning environment, quality and ongoing feedback is a process that enables students to bridge the gaps in the learning process and achieve optimal school success.
