About this title

From the Back Cover

Ideal for both prospective and practicing teachers, Classroom Assessment is written from the perspective that student evaluation is an integral part of teaching, not something done after instruction to measure what students have learned.  This text emphasizes assessment in the context of real classroom examples and decision-making.  The book provides Canadian teachers with a concise presentation of assessment principles that clearly and specifically relate to standards-based instruction, current research and new directions in the assessment field, along with practical and realistic examples, suggestions, and case studies.
