Course Description:
This sixteen-week course explores current issues and trends using alternative
methods of student assessment. We will focus on the measurement and
assessment process, measuring complex achievement, creating student
portfolios and a variety of assessment procedures teachers can use as
students engage in their work. During this course, we will read, reflect
and discuss these topics; create rubrics and other assessment measures;
and test out these new assessments and procedures in the classroom.
