How do I create a formative assessment as an admin?
As a Mastery Connect admin, you can create formative assessments from the Admin menu.
You can create formative assessments from document-based sources or from item-based sources and you can distribute them as district formative assessments.
Assessments can be kept private, shared with your school, or with your district.
