Implementing Self-Assessment in Classrooms and SchoolsReviewsEvery teacher wants to help students self-assess their own learning, but figuring how to do so in the context of real classrooms, with all the pressures and complications that come with them, is a significant challenge. Harris and Brown's book offers a unique perspective, connecting assessment, learning, and motivation theories with practical advice. Teachers will feel encouraged and empowered after reading this clear, concise guide to implementing self-assessment. -Rob McEntarffer, Assessment Specialist at the Lincoln Public Schools District Office, USA In this well-written review of the most current data available on formative assessment and motivation, Harris and Brown remind us of the importance of involving students in their own learning. In an era where tests and testing serve as relentless messengers of students' inherent academic value, it is more important than ever that educators teach students the skills, knowledge, and disposition necessary to become independent learners and self-assessors. This timely book should be in the hands of every educator interested in helping 21st-century students break free from the tyranny of externally imposed achievement information by facilitating lifelong reflective learners. -Sharon Nichols, Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Texas, San Antonio, USA Author InformationLois Ruth Harris is Senior Lecturer within the School of Education and the Arts at Central Queensland University and Senior Research Fellow at the Learning Sciences Institute Australia at Australian Catholic University.
