formative is a versatile web- and app-based student response and assessment tool that works on most devices. Teachers can create classes using class codes, QR codes, URLs, or integrate with platforms like Clever, Canvas, and Google Classroom. They can use detailed tutorials and a library of user-created content or upload and create their own assignments, allowing students to type, record audio and video, draw, upload images, and answer questions. Students can complete tasks at their own pace or in a teacher-paced setting, submitting their work for feedback. Teachers can monitor progress in real-time or over time with options like a student growth tracker, and provide feedback through a dashboard that allows for both manual and automatic grading. Students can either create accounts for tracking or respond as guests without logging in.
