Paperback. Condition: Good. Imagine a truly practical guide to the creation and use of assessments in higher ed. classrooms This is it--a basic, common sense assessment literacy guide that maximized quality, saves time and, turns assessment into a teaching tool. All of this is done by focusing attention on a very few simple and easy-to-apply keys to success: starting with a clear purpose and clear learning targets, building quality items, exercises or task along with proper scoring schemes for that context, and planning to communicate results effectively. But there is one more unique feature of this guide: it shows professors when and how to involve students in a self-assessment process during their learning that causes achievement to skyrocket. This instructional use of assessment, called assessment FOR learning has been gaining a strong reputation around the world over the past two decades as an outstanding tool to promote student confidence and strong achievement gains. In short, this book teaches how to use assessment both to support learning and to certify or verify it (as in grading). There has not been a guide like this available in higher ed every before.

In addition, the presentation on effective communication differentiates between the use of feedback to support student learning (formative applications) and to certify it (summative).…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Written for pre-service teacher candidates who have little or no classroom experience, Rick Stiggins? multiple award-winning and market-leading text focuses squarely on preparing new teachers to assess students in classrooms, providing them with their initial orientation to classroom assessment and to the challenges they will face in monitoring student learning, in using the assessment process, and its results to benefit their students. The text clearly instructs teaching candidates on how to gather dependable evidence of student learning using quality assessments and how to use those assessments to support and to certify student learning. The book has an exceptionally strong focus on integrating assessment with instruction through student involvement in the assessment process; it is clearly the most non-technical and hands on practical orientation to assessment validity and reliability yet developed. It offers five easy-to-understand keys to effective classroom assessment practice that any teacher can learn to apply. The presentation covers the full range of classroom assessment methods, when and how to use them and how to communicate results in ways that support learning.  Examples and models are offered across grade levels and schools subjects to assist candidates in learning these things. The treatment of student-involved assessment, record keeping, and communication as an instructional intervention is a unique entity of the text.  Specific assessment strategies are offered throughout for helping students see the learning target from the beginning and then watch themselves move progressively close over time until they achieve ultimate learning success. Showing how to use assessment to accurately reflect student achievement and how to benefit?not merely grade?student learning, the text examines the full spectrum of assessment topics, from articulating targets, through developing quality assessments and communicating results effectively.…
