Performance assessment -- a teacher's way of knowing
Description
This film defines the crucial elements of all assessments and visits three classrooms: a Head Start, a kindergarten and a third grade, to show how the academic progress of young students can be evaluated without recourse to norm-referenced, standardized testing. Dr. Meisels makes his case for the documentation of achievement while also providing viewers with the vocabulary necessary to understand the field of assessment.
