Description
* Provides detailed information on
* the functions of assessment;
* how to construct, administer, and interpret the results of teacher-developed assessment techniques; and
* how to interpret the results of externally developed instruments such as standardized tests.
* Both traditional and newer, alternative assessment techniques are covered.
* Advantages and disadvantages of each assessment technique are discussed.
* A companion website helps both instructors and students obtain additional information on topics of special interest to them.
* Numerous examples of the principles and procedures make it easy for students to understand the material.
* The highly practical nature of this book stems from the focus on how assessment intertwines with other everyday activities in classrooms.
* Measurement theory and computational procedures that are unlikely to be used by classroom teachers are de-emphasized, producing a textbook that provides comprehensive coverage without being unnecessarily technical.
