Comprehensive assessment planning: Developing and managing multiple types of assessments

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Assessment has always been a key element of teaching and learning, instructional design, and curriculum development processes. However, “the current education system treats assessment as a function largely separated from teaching” (Council of Chief State School Offi cers, 2011, p. 4). The standardized testing movement is one approach to systematically collecting and reporting student learning data, but concerns have continued to be raised that standardized tests “should not be the only measure of student performance”.
