Assessment is an everyday, ongoing, integral part of teaching, not something separate from life in classrooms. Clasroom Concepts and Applications focuses not only on testing, grading, and interpreting tests and performance, but also on the practical concerns of organizing a classroom at the start of school and planning and implementing instruction. This is the most teacher-friendly assessment textbook available; one that future teachers will keep in their professional libraries for years to come.
Not going to lie, I didn't like this one. The writing is dry (although if you can write about grading and standardized tests in an exciting way, please tell me) and it just reads like a math textbook. There are some good points in the book, but I just didn't care for it.
