Research conducted by Central Michigan University, (Sept, 2006) concluded that when teachers effectively use formative and summative assessment practices, students who typically perform at the lower level of achievement show the greatest academic gains. Engaged students take ownership of their learning and become the center of their own success. Teachers use formative data to evaluate and develop reteaching strategies to grow all students while the summative data is used to determine if curriculum goals and objectives have been met. Google forms is one of many online tools that can be used by teachers as a formative and summative evaluation tool. Surveys and or assessments can be created and the results may be viewed in spreadsheet or chart form. Users may create forms or use templates created by other users. Forms can be used by classroom teachers to assess students to obtain demographic data as well as administrative tasks.
