Common assessments-both formative and summative-are a means of ensuring that teachers align both curriculum and assessment with standards and the goals of the school. Teams of teachers in the same subject area or grade level develop, test, and refine the assessments that they use to provide consistency in grading and other assessments. The process of developing common assessments helps teachers examine and improve their practice, collect and analyze data, and work collaboratively to improve curriculum, instruction, and assessment.
Schools using the common formative assessment process are finding that the results are providing powerful insights  about:

• How well their students have learned the standards
• What changes they need to consider in their instructional strategies
• How to meet the differing needs of their students
