Description
This book is a collaboration of experienced educators—each writing a chapter that relates directly to the author’s experiences and understanding of a specific assessment issue. Each chapter begins with an authentic classroom scenario many teachers will recognize; then the author raises an assessment dilemma and offers useful information and practical guidance for classroom teachers to follow.
