Towards Coherence Between Classroom Assessment and Accountability (National Society for the Study of Education Yearbooks)

In analyses of the role of national educational assessment, insufficient attention has been paid to the central place of the classroom. Download Towards Coherence Between Classroom Assessment and Accountability (National Society for the Study of Education Yearbooks) from rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared.

Improving the usefulness of assessment in schools primarily requires assisting and harnessing this flood of assessment information, both as a means of learning within the classroom and as the source of crucial information flowing out of classrooms.
