Author by: Dany Laveault Language: en Publisher by: Springer Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 83 Total Download: 517 File Size: 50,6 Mb Description: This book provides new perspectives on Assessment for Learning (AfL), on the challenges encountered in its implementation, and on the diverse ways of meeting these challenges.
It brings together contributions from authors working in a wide range of educational contexts: Australia, Canada, England, Germany, New Zealand, Norway, Israel, Philippines, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United States. It reflects the issues, innovations, and critical reflections that are emerging in an expanding international network of researchers, professional development providers, and policy makers, all of whom work closely with classroom teachers and school leaders to improve the assessment of student learning. The concept of Assessment for Learning, initially formulated in 1999 by the Assessment Reform Group in the United Kingdom, has inspired new ways of conceiving and practicing classroom assessment in education systems around the world.
This book examines assessment for learning in a broad perspective which includes diverse approaches to formative assessment (some emphasizing teacher intervention, others student involvement in assessment), as well as some forms of summative assessment designed to support student learning. The focus is on assessment in K-12 classrooms and on the continuing professional learning of teachers and school leaders working with these classrooms.
Readers of this volume will encounter well documented accounts of AfL implementation across a large spectrum of conditions in different countries and thereby acquire better understanding of the challenges that emerge in the transition from theory and policy to classroom practice. They will also discover a wealth of ideas for implementing assessment for learning in an effective and sustainable manner.
The chapters are grouped in three Parts: (1) Assessment Policy Enactment in Education Systems; (2) Professional Development and Collaborative Learning about Assessment; (3) Assessment Culture and the Co-Regulation of Learning. An introduction to each Part provides an overview and presents the suggestions and recommendations formulated in the chapters. Author by: Cano, Elena Language: en Publisher by: IGI Global Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 82 Total Download: 750 File Size: 55,8 Mb Description: Both educators and their students are involved in the process of assessment – all parties are expected to meet and exceed expectations in the face of competing conditions.
New practices are being developed to enhance students’ participation, especially in their own assessment, be it though peer-review, reflective assessment, the introduction of new technologies, or other novel solutions. Though widely researched, few have measured these innovations’ effectiveness in terms of satisfaction, perceived learning, or performance improvements. Innovative Practices for Higher Education Assessment and Measurement bridges the gap between political discourse, theoretical approach, and teaching practices in terms of assessment in higher education.
Bringing new insights and presenting novel strategies, this publication brings forth a new perception of the importance of assessment and offers a set of successful, innovative practices. This book is ideal for educators, administrators, policy makers, and students of education.

Description Designed for undergraduate and masters-level introduction to general education assessment courses This package includes a print book and MyEducationLab with Enhanced Pearson eText. This book is best known for its focus on teaching pre-service teachers how to involve students in the assessment process and how to use assessment as a tool to advance learning.
From reviews of the text: “The text clearly lays out assessment design for beginners. It is clear and easy to read. The overall clarity of the text makes this textbook an important tool in educating pre-service teachers.” Xyanthe Neider, Washington State University “The overall theme of this text is that assessment is a deliberate, thoughtful process done on many levels that can enhance and guide the instructional process. The text moves students from the general (What is assessment?) to the specific (How do you create a multiple choice test that will provide valid and reliable data?), helping students understand the vital connection between instruction and assessment along the way. The focus on assessment for learning. Is an important way of considering assessment that most students do not think about.
As school districts begin using the Common Core standards, incorporating assessment for learning should become an important component of instruction. This text helps students understand the many facets of thinking about assessment this way and helps them learn how to design their assessments to be used in this way.” Leigh Ausband, UNC Charlotte “This text is a valuable addition to. Classroom assessment textbooks because of its focus on promoting assessment for learning.
Many existing textbooks do not use this terminology (assessment for, of, and as learning) rather they rely on more traditional notions of formative and summative assessment. The newer terminology brings with it more contemporary uses and conceptions of assessment that serve a mandate to support learning through integrated assessments. This message is made clear throughout the text. I also appreciate that the textbook draws on traditional teachings in assessment to establish that assessment for learning does not require a whole new set of assessment techniques. This text advances an important (new) mission for educational assessment. I hope it is widely adopted, as I believe it has the capacity to reshape teacher candidates’ conceptions of assessment as a central teaching and learning tool.” Christopher DeLuca, University of South Florida. MyEducationLab is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with the text to engage learners and to improve learning. Within its structured environment, learners see key concepts demonstrated through real classroom video footage, practice what they learn, test their understanding, and receive feedback to guide their learning and to ensure their mastery of key learning outcomes.
