Assessment in the Service of Learning: Challenges and Opportunities or Plus ça Change, Plus c'est la même Chose
Burkhardt, Hugh; Schoenfeld, Alan
ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, v50 n4 p571-585 Aug 2018
This paper begins with a brief overview of literature indicating that, although there have been significant advances in the field's capacity to conduct both formative and summative assessments over the past decades, those advances have not been matched by comparable impact. The bulk of the paper is devoted to a series of examples from the Mathematics Assessment Project that illustrate issues of methods, and the unrealized potential for advances.
