Examinations and Project-Based AssessmentsTeachers include several opportunities for a student to practice or demonstrate mastery in a grading period through Formative Assessments. Formative Assessments are homework assignments, quizzes, in-class work, participation, etc.
Summative Assessments are cumulative exams OR projects (known as mid-term, final exam, unit assessments) where the student can demonstrate her overall knowledge learned during a grading period.
Make-up AssessmentsThe policy on make-up assessments (tests, projects) varies among teachers. Each student is responsible to know the policies of her teachers (included in their class syllabi).
