This study examines the role of formative assessment in the school environment and in particular focuses on the effects of the latter on learning in primary school. The goal is to examine, in this specific age group, the influence of formative assessment on pupils’ learning. The theme was chosen for the specific relevance and importance of the evaluation phase in the teaching and learning process. The purpose of the article is to demonstrate, through a systematic review, that the use of formative assessment has direct consequences on the learning of pupils. In addition, we will try to clarify which formative assessment methods and which types of feedback management have a more significant influence on learning. The review examined the arti- cles published in open access on two search engines: ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center) and SCOPUS. The research was carried out without time limits but restricting the population to primary school pupils. The results confirm the positive effects of formative assessment on pupils’ learning.
Il presente studio prende in esame il ruolo della valutazione formativa in ambito scolastico e in particolare si concentra sugli effetti di quest’ultima sull’apprendimento nella fascia della scuola primaria. L’obiettivo è quello di esaminare, in questa specifica fascia di età, l’influenza della valutazione formativa sull’apprendimento degli studenti. Il tema è stato scelto per la specifica rilevanza e importanza che ha la fase valutativa nel processo didattico e in quello di apprendimento. Lo scopo dell’articolo è quello di dimostrare, tramite una revisione sistematica, che l’utilizzo della valutazione formativa ha conseguenze dirette sull’apprendimento degli alunni. Inoltre, si cercherà di chiarire quali modalità di valutazione formativa e quali tipologie di gestione del feedback hanno un’influenza più significativa sull’apprendimento. La rassegna ha preso in esame gli articoli pubblicati in open access su due motori di ricerca: ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center) e SCOPUS. La ricerca è stata svolta senza indicare limiti temporali ma restringendo la popolazione agli studenti di scuola primaria. I risultati confermano gli effetti positivi della valutazione formativa sull’apprendimento degli studenti.

Abstract
This study examines the role of formative assessment in the school environment and in particular focuses on the effects of the latter on learning in primary school. The goal is to examine, in this specific age group, the influence of formative assessment on pupils’ learning. The theme was chosen for the specific relevance and importance of the evaluation phase in the teaching and learning process. The purpose of the article is to demonstrate, through a systematic review, that the use of formative assessment has direct consequences on the learning of pupils. In addition, we will try to clarify which formative assessment methods and which types of feedback management have a more significant influence on learning. The review examined the arti- cles published in open access on two search engines: ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center) and SCOPUS. The research was carried out without time limits but restricting the population to primary school pupils. The results confirm the positive effects of formative assessment on pupils’ learning.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
