Full Description
What does performance-based assessment in teacher education mean? How can colleges and schools of education bring together faculty across programs and within programs to develop and implement a performance-based assessment program for their candidates? This volume is designed to share elements of effective performance-based assessments, examine the issues related to credibility of the evidence from performance-based assessments, and provide practical examples of works in progress from initial licensure through advanced-degree programs in teacher education.
