Description
Teacher Assessment Literacy explores how the knowledge, skills, and dispositions essential to classroom assessment can guide assessment practice and approaches in ways that elevate learning and create environments that leverage the diversity among today's students.
Concise yet comprehensive, this book links the foundations of assessment praxis to instructional decision-making, with special attention to issues of equity and culturally relevant practice and asset-based approaches.
The authors' coverage of assessment purposes and frameworks, differentiation in instruction, motivation and self-regulation, and data use practices make this an ideal volume for pre- and in-service teachers and those who prepare them.
