"The FOSS Assessment System uses a number of formative and summative strategies to help teachers and students monitor students' progress and measure students' abilities to apply the concepts they have learned. The formative assessment system includes observation of students engaged in scientific practices and review of notebook entries. The FOSS assessment system was carefully developed through a thorough research project at the Lawrence Hall of Science (ASK, Assessing Science Knowledge)." - The Regents of the University of California
