Produktbeschreibung

Merely focusing on assessment with no connection to teaching and learning is to overlook the power of assessment for learning. This book pulls together several models: 1) the five keys of quality assessment, 2) Hattie's work on Visible Learning, and 3) the seven strategies of assessment for learning.
