چکیده
Formative assessment is recognized as an important component of teachers’ classroom assessment strategies; recent research has pointed to peer and self-assessment as a way to operationalize the principles of formative assessment.

The results indicate that many teachers find peer and self-assessment useful and that there is potential for greater classroom applicability but that more research is needed to guide wide spread use of these assessment strategies.
