MARTINEZ RIZO, Felipe. Difficulties to implement the formative assessment: A state of affairs. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2013, vol.35, n.139, pp.128-150. ISSN 0185-2698.

The learning assessment approach called formative assessment seems useful because of the benefits that its implementation in schools can provide, but the people who show interest in it do not always know the difficulties that this system entails. This can lead to intervention efforts that lack in the necessary soundness to bear fruit. Supposing that the opposition between formative and accumulative assessment is already known, and based on a revision of the literature on this matter, this paper offers an overview of the variety of factors that have an incidence on teaching practice and of the difficulties that this entails for the transformation of this practice, and more particularly for what regards to the adoption of the formative assessment approach.
