"This book links two critical topics in education today: the use of educational technology and the need for meaningful assessment. The author provides a treasuretrove of activities and examples to enhance teaching and learning. Ms. Meldrum aptly demonstrates not only how the use of technology in the context of assessment can be achieved but also makes a compelling argument that technology is a driver towards equity. This book celebrates the convergence of the potential of technology and the need for differentiation in education. A must-read for today's teacher!" -Cindy Finn, Ph.D. "I have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Meldrum for the past few years. I am so pleased that Kim's expertise in transforming a school staff is now available to all administrators and educators. This book provides the reader with practical examples of how to use technology as a tool for learning and clearly explains the rich assessment information that can be taken from student creations. It is the first book about assessment that I can honestly say provides the reader with a clear understanding of the critical role that ongoing assessment has on student success. Ms. Meldrum gives us practical examples of how to successfully change our teaching and our assessment practices." -Bernadette Reichert, Principal "I've read many books on technology and probably more on assessment. I can honestly say that I've never read one that captures the essence of both topics more expertly and succinctly than Kim's book." -Sam Bruzzese, retired Principal and Faculty Lecturer Praise for Assessment That Matters "As a continued supporter of meaningful learning, embracing opportunity, and promoting the use of technology in the classroom, I could not have enjoyed Ms. Meldrum's book more. She truly understands differentiated instruction, while allowing students to take creative liberties with their work. She uses that framework to suggest new and innovative ways of blending learning and technology-pushing students to demonstrate their learning and using technology as an empowering tool. The landscape of teaching and assessment practices continues to change, and Ms. Meldrum's book will help any educator navigate this exciting and influential time." -Michael Chechile, Director General of the Lester B. School Board "This book is the antidote to America's burden of standardized teaching. Kim captures the true foundation of what authentic assessment should be like and provides the reader with practical experiences and examples that teachers can use in their classroom tomorrow. Learn how to move past 'data' to understand real assessment and personalized learning." -Tanya Avrith, Pedagogical Consultant, Apple Distinguished Educator, Google for Education Certified Innovator "A worthwhile read for educators across all facets of learning. This book should be required reading for all students in teacher-preparation programs as well as future curriculum and instruction specialists. The whole concept of assessment has far too long been along one very limited stream of information. This book highlights all the different elements to assessment as well shows a purposeful and meaningful way to integrate technology for the purpose of assessment." -Ken Shelton, Keynote Speaker, Apple Distinguished Educator, Google Certified Innovator
