Week 4


Comprehensive Assessment Binder

Create an online binder, using LiveBinders, with information about the different types of assessments that make up a comprehensive assessment program, including formative and summative assessments, formal and informal assessments, portfolios, performance assessments, self-assessments and affective assessments, and norm-referenced and criterion-referenced standardized assessments. This binder should be set up and organized in such a way that it could be saved and used as a future reference.

  • Tab #3: Portfolios
  • Tab #4: Performance Assessments
  • Tab #5: Self-Assessments and Affective Assessments
