Contrary to the opinion that formative and summative assessment approaches are not compatible, this article presents a theoretically grounded way in which different forms of assessment can be combined and integrated in university mathematics teacher education. Two mixed-assessment approaches are demonstrated through the analysis of a case study involving a practice-based seminar accompanying a school internship. First, a formative eportfolio assessment was combined with a summative panel survey to assess the learning opportunities of mathematics pre-service teachers. Second, the formative eportfolio approach was integrated with a summative oral course examination to make statements about the learning processes and learning outcomes of the pre-service teachers. Our analyses conclude that combining and integrating the two forms of assessment present the possibility of evaluating different aspects of the pre-service teachers' perceptions of opportunities to learn. Benefits, validation aspects and limitations of the two approaches of combining and integrating assessment forms are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
