Publisher's Synopsis
For Early Childhood Assessment and Early Childhood Tests and Measurement courses.
This user-friendly core text discusses assessment in terms that are understandable for pre-service and in-service teachers. Its strong coverage of traditional assessment vehicles is apparent in its comprehensive treatment of standardized tests. Non-traditional vehicles are also thoroughly examined in several chapters on informal evaluation methods. The approach of this edition supports the development of an assessment system that includes both traditional and authentic assessment strategies in a comprehensive plan.
