Assess students with paper cards and one teacher device
Formative
Real-time formative assessment for classrooms
About Formative
Formative, now part of Newsela, lets teachers run live assessments, assignments, and interactive lessons seeing student responses as they happen and adjusting instruction. Teachers close misconceptions during the lesson instead of after grading. In practice, learners use it in short, regular sessions rather than long courses, and buyers usually compare it on content quality, feedback, and whether progress is tracked clearly over time.
