The book includes a comprehensive introduction, faculty-composed narratives, commentaries by well-known science educators, and a visual index to 100 more refined innovations.
Review:
`Innovative testing/grading practices directed to the goal of improved student learning...These books are not full of assessment theory, but rather loaded with practical examples...forge some new pathways for the learning quest, and are worthy of your time and effort.'
