Overview

Classroom Assessment presents classroom assessment principles in an easy-to-read, engaging way where you learn and practice skills as you read. It draws on new research to show you how to effectively use classroom assessment to improve student learning and motivation. Key strategies and techniques are demonstrated using practical, realistic examples, suggestions and case studies.

The 8th Edition emphasizes formative assessment. It also includes more in-depth coverage of self-assessment, the impact of standards-based accountability testing, 21st century knowledge, dispositions and skills, technology-enhanced items and assessment of culturally diverse students.
