Synopsis
Intended for a first course on testing and measurement, assessment, or pupil evaluation taught in schools or departments of education. This text embodies the notion that student evaluation is an integral part of teaching, not something that is only done after instruction in order to measure what students have learned. It is designed to provide prospective and practicing teachers with a concise presentation of assessment principles that clearly and specifically relate to instruction; current research and new directions in the field of assessment; and practical and realistic examples and suggestions.

From the Back Cover
“This text gets the important points about classroom assessment across to students in a simple straightforward manner.”
E. Michael Nussbaum
University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Classroom Assessment: Principles and Practice for Effective Instruction, 3/e provides prospective and current teachers with a practical guide to conducting a full range of high quality assessments. This book emphasizes assessment in the context of the realities of teaching and teacher decision-making, as well as on how assessment is integrated with instruction.
Considerable emphasis is placed on the nature of learning targets and how different assessments are most appropriate for different targets. Suggestions for effective practice, examples and case studies are presented for each assessment technique. Separate chapters on contemporary assessment techniques and issues, such as performance and portfolio assessments, as well as separate chapters on assessing affective targets and students with disabilities are included. A balance is provided with traditional forms of assessment and the need for teachers to administer, interpret, and use results from standards-based, large-scale assessments and other standardized tests.
