Results from the application of a formative assessment tool, CaseMate, in a school setting.

Curriculum structure and policy can inhibit the implementation of formative assessment; 2. Data access to student assessments is supported by color-coded dashboard displays; 3. Data interpretation varies widely: A hodgepodge of heuristics exists."
