Description

Discover innovative methods to create structured evaluation tools that match assessment tasks to classroom goals and activities, and make them an integral part of learning and teaching. Well-developed tests encourage students to apply new knowledge, reflect on and defend their opinions, and connect what they're learning to the outside world. Substantial background information is supported by sample tests from the major subject areas and practical tips and tools for teacher, student, and home, all ready to copy and use. Teachers will get everything they need to make thoughtful and confident decisions about how, when, and why to assess student learning.
