Summary:
The dreams and hopes of of educators for a better world are tempered by the realities of reporting and accountability systems. In Measures of Success, 13 known and respected practitioners and researchers explore the theory and practice of assessment and accountability. The contributing authors include Jay Derrick, Kathryn Ecclestone, Juliet Merrifield, Jan Hagston, Dave Tout, Ralf St. Clair, Alisa Belzer, Katrina Grieve, William Fagan, Robin Millar, Karen Geraci, Christine Pinsent-Johnson, and Pat Campbell. Building on the premise that literacy is complex and multi-faceted, the authors define the dominant types of assessment tools and then shift to the broader questions of assessment for whom and for what. In Part 1, the authors describe standardized, diagnostic, competency-based, and performance-based assessment tools. In Part 2, the authors provide insight into the assessment and accountability systems in Canada, the United States, Scotland, England, Wales, and Australia. Part 3 provides a set of seven key principles to guide effective accountability systems. The accompanying DVDS are an ideal training tool for workshops and in-services. The diagnostic assessment DVD demonstrates how to administer and interpret a diagnostic assessment. (Running time: 25 minutes.) The performance assessment DVD demonstrates an interview, portfolios, building a rubric, and demonstrations. (Running time: 27:30 minutes)
