Florida Fire Instructor 1 Practice Exam

What does formative evaluation include?

1. Grades and scores only

2. A reflective learning journal

3. Ongoing assessments, conducted throughout the course to adapt the program

4. Final exams and standardized tests

The correct answer is: Ongoing assessments, conducted throughout the course to adapt the program

Formative evaluation involves ongoing assessments throughout a course to adapt and improve the program. Option A is incorrect because formative evaluation goes beyond just grades and scores to focus on continuous improvement. Option B is incorrect because a reflective learning journal is only one aspect of formative evaluation, but it is not enough on its own. Option D is incorrect because final exams and standardized tests only measure the end results, rather than providing ongoing feedback for improvement during the course.
