This book provides an overview of current research on a variety of topics related to both large-scale and classroom assessment. First, the purposes, traditions and principles of assessment are considered, with particular attention to those common to all levels of assessment and those more connected with either classroom or large-scale assessment. Assessment design based on sound assessment principles is discussed, differentiating between large-scale and classroom assessment, but also examining how the design principles overlap. The focus then shifts to classroom assessment and provides specific examples of assessment strategies, before examining the impact of large-scale assessment on curriculum, policy, instruction, and classroom assessment. The book concludes by discussing the challenges that teachers currently face, as well as ways to support them. The book offers a common language for researchers in assessment, as well as a primer for those interested in understanding current work in the area of assessment. In summary, it provides the opportunity to discuss large-scale and classroom assessment by addressing the following main themes: ·Purposes, Traditions and Principles of Assessment ·Design of Assessment Tasks ·Classroom Assessment in Action ·Interactions of Large-Scale and Classroom Assessment ·Enhancing Sound Assessment Knowledge and Practices It also suggests areas for future research in assessment in mathematics education.

Assessment for learning is a powerful way to raise standards and improve learning. However, as this book shows, effective assessment for learning in the mathematics classroom depends on pupils being able and willing to use mathematical language to express their ideas. When discussion, negotiation and explanation are encouraged, teachers use assessment for learning creatively, the work quickly becomes more challenging and the pupils come to see themselves as successful learners. Many pupils find it difficult to express ideas in mathematics because of problems with the language that is used to convey mathematical concepts. This book shows teachers how to help pupils express what they really know and understand, so that assessment for learning can be used. The book: Discusses what mathematical language is, and what it is not Suggests practical approaches to introducing more discourse into the classroom Explores the ideas of assessment for learning - rich questioning and dialogue, effective feedback, and peer and self assessment - and suggests how these can be used effectively in mathematics classrooms to improve learning Language for Learning Mathematics is key reading for teachers and trainee teachers in mathematics, as well as assessment advisors at LAs.

"Uncovering Student Thinking in Mathematics shows us ways to listen and observe children and their mathematical understandings so we can find better ways to help them take their next learning steps. This book is a gift to educators who ′seek to understand before being understood.′" —From the Foreword by Anne Davies "A fresh and unique resource for mathematics teachers who recognize the importance of carefully establishing the starting points of instruction in terms of what students already know. The collection of assessment probes is inventive, engaging for students, and invaluable for teachers." —Richard H. Audet, Associate Professor, Roger Williams University Use formative assessment probes to take the guesswork out of mathematics instruction and improve learning! Students learn at varying rates, and if a misconception in mathematics develops early, it may be carried from year to year and obstruct a student′s progress. To identify fallacies in students′ preconceived ideas, Uncovering Student Thinking in Mathematics offers educators a powerful diagnostic technique in the form of field-tested assessment probes—brief, easily administered activities to determine students′ thinking on core mathematical concepts. Designed to question students′ conceptual knowledge and reveal common understandings and misunderstandings, the probes generate targeted information for modifying mathematics instruction, allowing teachers to build on students′ existing knowledge and individually address their identified difficulties. Linked to National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards, this invaluable handbook assists educators with: 25 ready-to-use mathematical probes Teacher guides for implementing each probe at any grade level Examples of typical obstacles and faulty thinking demonstrated by students This rich resource combines standards, educational research findings, and practical craft knowledge to help teachers deliver informed instruction that strengthens all students′ learning and achievement in mathematics.

This book is one of the first to attempt a systematic in-depth analysis of assessment in mathematics education in most of its important aspects: it deals with assessment in mathematics education from historical, psychological, sociological, epistmological, ideological, and political perspectives. The book is based on work presented at an invited international ICMI seminar and includes chapters by a team of outstanding and prominent scholars in the field of mathematics education. Based on the observation of an increasing mismatch between the goals and accomplishments of mathematics education and prevalent assessment modes, the book assesses assessment in mathematics education and its effects. In so doing it pays particular attention to the need for and possibilities of assessing a much wider range of abilities than before, including understanding, problem solving and posing, modelling, and creativity. The book will be of particular interest to mathematics educators who are concerned with the role of assessment in mathematics education, especially as regards innovation, and to everybody working within the field of mathematics education and related areas: in R&D, curriculum planning, assessment institutions and agencies, teacher trainers, etc.

'Mathematics Inside the Black Box' is an easy-to-read booklet offering great advice and guidance on how to develop formative assessment in Mathematics. The booklet suggests methods for teachers to interact more effectively with pupils on a day-to-day basis to promote their learning, for instance by using focused questioning techniques and careful analysis of pupils' responses. The title sets out in detail the authors' findings on ways of implementing assessment for learning: * Developing questioning In classrooms * The Importance of feedback * The role of self- and peer-assessment A final section pulls together key issues in implementing the strategies in a whole-school context. Table of contents: * What does this booklet offer? * Background * Aims of mathematics teaching * Principles of learning * Classroom dialogue: talking in and about mathematics * Challenging activities (The obvious answer is not always correct. Using what we know about pupils' mathematical understanding. Problems with more or less than one correct answer. Generating mathematical structure. Closed questions can sometimes be valuable. Mistakes are often better for learning than correct answers. Using textbooks. What is different about easy and hard questions. Using summative tests formatively. Good problems are not universal. Generating challenging activities.) * Encouraging pupil talk through questioning and listening * Strategies to support all learners * Opportunity for peer discussion * Encouraging open discussion * Feedback and marking (Enabling pupils to identify the errors themselves. Identifying where pupils use and extend their existing knowledge. Encouraging pupils to reflect. Suggesting pupils discuss their ideas with other pupils. Helping pupils to show their working. Advice on learning facts and procedures.) * Self and peer assessment (Two stars and a wish. Commenting in pairs. Checking understanding. Discussing comments.) * Putting it into practice.
