Low cost supportive tool for teaching assistance in formative assessment strategy

摘要

Formative assessment plays an important role for achieving a relevant education, due to its controlling function of the learning process. Yet, when working with a large number of students concomitantly, it is difficult to provide continuous feedback to the teacher, due to time limitations. This paper proposes a low cost, supportive technical system based on data logging and serial communication, which improves efficiency by reducing timings required for some routine operations in the evaluation work.
