• Summary:"Teachers' bread-and-butter testing activities associated with classroom assessment--the activities not influenced by federal statutory shifts--remain relatively constant. And those main-line assessment decisions are the ones addressed in much of this oft-revised classroom assessment textbook--the one you'll soon read. A thorough review of the previous edition of the book has taken place for purposes of updating. For example, since the publication of the eighth edition of Classroom Assessment, we have seen a substantial increase in the use of computer-adaptive testing. This topic, its advantages, and its drawbacks are considered in the new edition. Similar updating has been applied throughout" -- Provided by publisher.
