Classroom assessment 2nd ed.

Long the market-leading text, Classroom Assessment, Sixth Edition continues to offer the same traits that have been its hallmark for decades: a practical approach rich with real classroom strategies and applications; an authoritative, research-based overview of classroom assessment by one of the leaders in the field, W. James Popham; an authorial voice that is truly both clear and engaging that pre-service teachers will enjoy. In addition to expert coverage of the field of classroom assessment, this text continues to give students ample opportunities, in the "Decision Time" activities, to evaluate realistic classroom scenarios and to make informed decisions about testing and assessment based on what they've learned in each chapter. It also retains the highly regarded feature, "Parent Talk," so new teachers can learn effective ways to communicate with parents about their children's grades and educational progress. - Back cover.
