We conducted a qualitative study with eighteen pre-service physical education teachers in Spain. The results revealed the difficulties and the variety of experiences the participants encountered during the practicum in relation to assessment. Student accountability and improving learning and teaching were the most common assessment conceptions, although the assessment tasks designed by the participants were not entirely formative. In general, the practicum experience reaffirmed their previous ideas on formative assessment.eng© 2024 The AuthorsAssessmentAssessment conceptionsAssessment literacyFormative assessmentPracticumTeacher educationjournal article2025-02-28
