Assessment Considerations

  • Use post assessment to preassess - course or unit
  • Test above level
  • Employ inventories, rating scales, observations, and checklists.
  • Use performance assessments - the more open-ended the better.
  • Trust the data!
  • Cast a wide net using multiple data sources
