Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Informal assessment refers to assessments that are not structured or standardized and do not result in a grade or score. Observing how various students handle the ball as they play soccer is an example of informal assessment as it is an unstructured and non-standardized way of observing and evaluating students' skills. The other options involve more structured and standardized methods of assessment such as submitting a project, taking a quiz or answering a short-answer test.
