The diploma thesis deals with informal formative assessment, namely one of its methods, which is "on the fly" assessment. Methods of formative assessment are frequently discussed in the current teaching conception, as their implementation into teaching leads to the development of student's learning and at the same time it provides useful information about the process of student's learning and about the quality and effectiveness of the teacher's teaching. The means for finding out this information is often the feedback in teacher-student interactions. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the use of "on the fly" assessment in biology lessons at an elementary school. The first part of the thesis presents a literary research. The second part is devoted to the presentation of the results, in particular to the analysis of the observed lessons with focus on the frequency of interactions between the students and the teacher, using the method of providing immediate feedback. In total, ten biology lessons were analysed at one selected school. All the lessons were transcribed and deeper analysed using the ESRU model. The main goal was to identify cases when the ESRU cycle was completed and included all four sub-steps on which it is based. The results have shown the most frequent use of incomplete cycles or impaired complete ESR cycles, and at the same time it has emerged that the occurrence of immediate formative feedback is not conditioned by completeness, i.e. the presence of all the steps of the ESRU cycle. It has been also found out that the ESRU model provides important information about informal formative assessment procedures, mainly it usefully distinguishes the different steps of the interaction and thus shows its flow, which goes beyond the general description of feedback.
