Developing and Using Classroom Assessments,
By Dorcas (Orlando, FL) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Developing and Using Classroom Assessments (4th Edition) (Paperback)
I ordered this book for my graduate course in reading education. This is the tool for assessment. It is comprehensive and contains a huge amount of information on the subject of assessment. You name it it's in this book. The book is also well organized so that you can go straight to any topic you are researching without having to reread the entire book. It is organized into sections that contain chapters about a specific subject. The chaters break the information down into even smaller components so that you only research the subject you are interested in at that particular time, and again you don't have to reread the entire textbook. For example, Part 1 is entitlted How to establish a framework for assessing your students. It contains chapters 2 through 5 explaining in detail how to measure, gather evidence, generalize performance, etc. It's my official go to book for reference and research. I do not intend to sell it back.
