Kay Burke, renowned author and educator, takes readers step-by-step building a conceptual understanding of alternative assessments and demonstrates practical applications of assessment strategies.
Excellent resource for different types of assessment that lead to balanced results, taking into consideration students' strengths and weaknesses. Use to find assessment strategies, refer to when making teacher-made tests and conducting student interviews and conferences, as well as lesson planning with metacognitive strategies and assessment in mind beforehand.
I used this book in one of the university courses I teach. If you are interested in learning more about assessment, this book has some great information. You will find lots of hands-on, practical tools to use in any classroom.
