Abstract
We propose a method for formative assessment of laboratory work which provides a running updated diagnostic of the student performance and skills in all predefined formative areas and sub-areas. The method is easily adaptable to any type of report or laboratory performance assessment, provided that a graded assessment profile can be defined.
