Popis: To study the effect of formative assessment in teaching of cell biology for medical international students, we take the class of 2014 international students in Weifang medical university as the research object, and set the traditional summative assessment for the control group and formative assessment as reform group. Through the final exam results analysis and questionnaire, we compared the teaching effect of the two groups. Results show that the average score of reform group is higher, and the high performance was more. Through questionnaire statistics found that 68.6% students think that formative assessment can arouse the enthusiasm of students, and 58.8% students think that formative assessment can improve the learning efficiency of students. Furthermore, 78.4% students think that formative assessment can improve the ability of analyzing and resolving problems. Therefore, the formative assessment can improve the effect of teaching, and it is more suitable for international students.
