All teachers live with the demands made by assessment systems. Unfortunately, owing to work-a-day pressures and concerns, they have little opportunity for considering and furthering their understanding of the different issues which can be illuminated by a critical examination of the various technical ideas of assessment. This work addresses this need - by indicating points of growth or change within the field of assessment it will inform teachers more comprehensively.
Industry Reviews
"The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the issues central to the practice of assessment. Teachers, administrators, and other educators are exposed to the critical aspects of assessment and to the core issues of future decisions concerning the roles and directions of assessment in schools. .The books could be effectively used as a supplement to a more comprehensive text or as a resource in a course on general educational topics. The structure of the book, which also makes it accessible to parents and other concerned parties, could be used to guide discussions concerning assessment at both school an government levels.." -Education Horizons, Vol. 77, No. Fall 1998
