Edutopia
This year I have discovered a brilliant educational website called Edutopia.It documents and disseminates information about exemplary programs in K-12 schools around the world. It is basically a place to learn about innovative approaches and best practices.It covers many topics and you are able to browse through grade levels as well. Below you will find the links that are relevant to assessment:
How Should We Measure Student Learning
Core Strategy: Comprehensive Assessment
How Can We Make Assessments Meaningful
Why Formative Ssessment Matters
Assessment Professional Development Guide
Its "Schools That Work " series is also an excellent resource, profiling particular K-12 schools and programs that have dramatically improved the way students learn.In this section there are videos, helpful tips as well as resources such as rubrics,lesson plans and assessments.The video below showcases how a school in Singapore is preparing students for 21st century learning.
There are also many articles about Multiple Intelligences .You might like to take the quiz below What's Your Learning Style?
