But how effectively is it being used in class rooms is a question mark. Most of assessments are teacher driven. Learner (student) should only be limited by Learner’s own creativity leading to self construction of knowledge and not to the extent of instructor’s Knowledge
Further formative assessments must have an element of achievable challenge motivating learner to excel

http://www.testbag.com has a good natural online formative assessment system named Self Assessor covering range of subjects, their topic and key concepts with flexibility in self test creation on select parameters. Questions take classification by type and level (not difficulty).

It also has summative assessment system Test Simulator

Results are immediate with details and stored for each learner with analytics for learner and instructor
