Assessment as Inquiry: Learning the Hypothesis-Test Process

_Assessment as Inquiry_ describes a different way of thinking, of looking at one's teaching and students' learning as a recursive process of hypothesizing and testing (H-T). Included in the book are stories from classroom teachers learning the process and implementing it in their classrooms with individual students. Elementary English language arts teachers looking for authentic assessment techniques will find here a way to interweave teaching and assessment. The H-T process provides tools for continuous observation of students, determining first and foremost the needs of each of those students to succeed in the classroom.
