What do teachers love about Formative?

Jessica

3rd Grade Teacher

I initially started using [Formative] for real-time assessment and data collection, but I quickly noticed that students were becoming more invested in their learning. Seeing their progress in real time motivated them to try harder, and the immediate feedback helped them take ownership of their work.”

Erin

8th Grade Math Teacher

“Formative allows me to collaborate with other teachers not only within my PLC, but also across the district. I’ve been collaborating on some lessons with a teacher from another school. Not only does this increase the value of my curriculum, but it lessens my workload.”

Andrea

10th Grade Science Teacher

“I am now able to add student accommodations as students join my roster, which makes it super convenient for when I am giving a test or a quiz on Formative. Their accommodations are already taken into account. I also like using the audio feature to record myself reading questions for my students who use oral administration.”
