This is the second edition of a highly successful book, previously
titled Better Instruction Through Assessment: What Your Students
Are Trying to Tell You. The revision was undertaken to respond to
the No Child Left Behind legislation, which has changed the way we
must look at students' achievement data. This book shows you how
to: - get the most out of your state's high stakes standardized
tests - use test results to make the right decisions about how to
teach the students in your class - avoid becoming a victim of
accountability systems - infuse "test savvy" into everyday
instruction. It covers a wide variety of types of assessments, from
classroom-based, teacher created tests to state-mandated, high
stakes standardized tests, both selected response and performance
assessment. Unlike traditional "textbooks," this book was written
specifically for practicing teachers and administrators. It
contains real-world examples which demonstrate the role of
assessment in a teacher's daily work. It is filled with actual
student responses and scenarios based on real life situations faced
by teachers.
