Classroom Assessment: Principles and Practice for Effective Instruction

by James H. McMillan

Intended for a first course on testing and measurement, assessment, or pupil evaluation taught in schools or departments of education. This text embodies the notion that student evaluation is an integral part of teaching, not something that is only done after instruction in order to measure what students have learned. It is designed to provide prospective and practicing teachers with a concise presentation of assessment principles that clearly and specifically relate to instruction; current research and new directions in the field of assessment; and practical and realistic examples and suggestions.
