Assessment is now regarded as a 'high stakes' issue: schools,
teachers, and individual pupils are often judged by the results of
national tests and public examinations. This book addresses both
formal and informal ways of assessing children's work and progress.
Pupils' learning is often neglected in the debate, so this book
puts what children actually learn right at its centre and involves
them sensibly and appropriately in the improvement of teaching and
learning. The book is divided into six units where Ted Wragg
address topics such as: principles and purposes of assessment
written, oral and practical evaluation self-assessment the 'whole
school' approach staff development and appraisal. The inclusion of
tried and tested practical activities, discussion topics,
photographs, cartoons and case examples makes this a very
user-friendly book for both trainee and experienced teachers in
secondary schools. This is one of a set of eight innovative yet
practical resource books for teachers, focussing on the classroom
and covering vital skills for primary and secondary teachers. The
books are strongly influenced by the findings of numerous research
projects during which hundreds of teachers were observed at work.
The first editions of the series were bestsellers, and these
revised second editions will be equally welcomed by teachers eager
to improve their teaching skills.
