商品簡介
Keeley, a consultant, science program director, professional development provider, and former teacher, and Tobey, a former teacher and math specialist for formative assessment projects, offer 75 formative assessment strategies for K-12 math teachers to use to inform instructional planning, similar to Keeley's earlier volume Science Formative Assessment: 75 Practical Strategies for Linking Assessment, Instruction, and Learning (2008) and organized in the same format. They introduce formative assessment in the math classroom; the link between assessment, instruction, and learning; and what a formative assessment technique is and the research to support it. They detail the connection between assessment and learning, including the role of metacognition, self-assessment, and reflection, and address issues for selecting, planning for, and implementing math assessment. The majority of the book outlines the assessments, which include some from the science text and new ones specific to math, arranged in alphabetical order. Each includes a description of how it promotes student learning and informs instruction, design and administration issues, modifications for different types of students and purposes, and uses in other disciplines, with examples.
