It is also efficient and low cost (time and resources; Dunlosky et al., 2013). When implemented effectively, formative testing provides students with regular feedback and corrective opportunities prior to summative assessments, and teachers with feedback on student performance. Formative testing during class time (synchronously) is far more effective than during individual learning (asynchronously) (Black &amp; William, 2009). So why isn&#8217;t formative testing a core component of classroom experiences during university?<\/p>\n<p>This seminar will review results from four years of formative testing in large-scale lecture halls at HKU. The implementation of classroom formative testing and its practical and theoretical outcomes will be discussed. A strong argument for the usefulness of classroom formative testing in everyday tertiary teaching will be put forth and colleagues will be invited to join the discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Staff are encouraged to come with their experiences using formative testing, their questions, and concerns regarding its use. Formative testing is not new, but it is powerful and underutilised in higher education broadly and at HKU specifically. We aim to convince educators that now is the time to rectify this. The seminar will conclude with a hands-on opportunity to try a formative testing platform designed for lecture halls and quick use.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Black, P., &amp; Wiliam, D. (2009).
