Detailed explanation-1: -In a nutshell, formative assessments are quizzes and tests that evaluate how someone is learning material throughout a course. Summative assessments are quizzes and tests that evaluate how much someone has learned throughout a course.
Detailed explanation-2: -What Is the Difference Between Formative and Summative Assessment?
