The study sought to investigate the role of online formative assessments for enhancing students' psychomotor skills in Physics. The Researchers adopted a descriptive study and purposively sampled 187 300level physics students in SouthEast Universities in Nigeria. The instrument for data collection was a titled "Online Formative Assessment and Psychomotor Skills Scale" (OFAPSS) developed by the researchers. The instrument (OFAPSS) was validated by three experts from the department of science education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. The internal consistency of OFAPSS was determined using Cronbach's Alpha and the reliability index of 0.87 was obtained. Mean and standard deviation were used to address the three research questions which guided the study. From the findings of the study, students agree that online formative assessment enhanced their psychomotor skills in Physics among others. In line with findings, the study recommended among others that teachers and school administrators should utilize and encourage students to explore online formative assessment platforms that will enhance their psychomotor skills in the learning of physics.
