Read how this book can help you understand
Teacher Performance Assessment…“The authors did an incredible job of presenting the pros and cons of the standards movement, standardized testing and the NCLB. They also presented the beginning of the standards movement and framed it in the context of the wider social system…They tied planning for instruction to performance-based assessment. This unification highlighted the relevance of planning for instruction. In addition, they emphasized the need to include the needs of second language learners into the curriculum. Superb job of linking assessment-planning-instruction-learning.The analysis on the planning/implementation of the lesson is crucial to students’ success.” Rosalinda Quintanar–San Jose State University
