Synopsis

This handbook takes a multidimensional approach to classroom assessment. A combination of theory and practice, the book emphasizes the assessment of classroom learning with content areas and development of standards for evaluation. The book also features assessment of academic self-concept and subjective well being in children and adolescents. It provides field tested examples of assessment techniques and strategies within the content areas of mathematics, social studies, foreign languages and the visual arts. The book is divided into four sections: section one deals with the top five theories with respect to what learning is, how it's related to achievement, and how we assess both in the classroom setting; section two on standardized assessment briefly covers all major standardized achievement tests used in preschool, K-6, and 7-12; assessment of classroom learning in section three presents test instruments and techniques specific to the measurement of math skills, social science skills, and artistic talent across ages and grades; section four on classroom practices includes an assessment of general reasoning skills and performance and how they develop a grading philosophy.
