Abstract
Technological developments made it possible to collect, analyze, and assess automatically students' mathematics work, offering important tools for the assessment of students while they are working in rich digital environments. Automated online formative assessment has the potential to promote reasoning processes by improving the learners’ mathematics thinking or behavior (Shute, 2008). A commonly used type of online formative assessment is elaborated feedback. We explore whether students use elaborated feedback in the course of their reasoning process, and if so, how. We focused on the process of conjecturing, which is part of students’ work on an online example eliciting task (EET) using the Seeing the Entire Picture (STEP) platform. We present two case studies of the students' uses of the elaborated feedback.
