Synopsis

This brief, practical book is designed to provide the pre- or in-service teacher with the information and tools needed to use new forms of assessment ― as well as the confidence to try. The authors provide both the theoretical underpinnings to enhance readers' understanding of authentic assessment, and strategies to help them implement the use of portfolio assessment in their classrooms.

In a friendly, example-rich style the authors demystify the whys, whens, and hows of portfolio assessment by presenting it as a decision-making process with step-by-step illustrations and examples. They also provide clear application of portfolio assessment to the planning and adaptation of instruction, and an overview of barriers to change with examples of solutions.
