Recenzii
"As our national obsession with high-stakes tests subsides, and with it the growing acknowledgement of the failure of drill-and-kill practices, David Sherrin shows us what authentic assessment looks like. His passion for teaching students is palpable and contagious. Sherrin makes clear why we fight for teachers to have the freedom to teach, and the latitude to adopt best-practices.
Whether you are a first-year social studies teacher curious about how to move beyond multiple choice tests to assess learning, or you have long used authentic assessments and are looking to take your practice to the next level, this book has thoughtful insight on steps you can take to deepen and enrich teaching and learning in your classroom by incorporating authentic assessments." — Randi Weingarten, President, American Federation of Teachers
"A real page-turner, this engaging book illustrates the wonderfully varied ways students can express themselves in social studies class. David Sherrin presents a wide range of projects to embed in the curriculum, drawing from his own content knowledge of history and other social sciences as well as is deep pedagogical knowledge honed by teaching in a uniquely diverse set of schools. Teachers will find a text that is thought provoking and practical thanks to ample assignment descriptions, rubrics, and discussions of classroom practice." — Shira Eve Epstein, Associate Professor of Curriculum and Instruction, The City College of New York (CUNY)
"In the hands of the education machine, assessment has become a by-word for tedious, standardized mechanisms for measuring student fitness to satisfy abstract criteria designed by legislatures and committees. In this book, David Sherrin calls for – no, demands – authentic assessment in social studies education. Authentic, that is, not only to what students might do with this kind of learning in their ‘real life’ futures, but also the modes of thinking and communication that are most relevant to them right now. The result is a book as reflective as it is incisive, as joyful as it is intellectual, as down-to-earth as it is visionary."— Trevor Getz, Professor of History, San Francisco State University

"David Sherrin's exuberant book reminds us of the brilliance every student can show when given the chance. It offers every teacher, from novice to expert, a foothold in the world of authentic assessments. I can't wait to road-test his assignments with my students!"—Sarah Cooper, Eighth-Grade U.S. History Teacher and Dean of Studies at Flintridge Preparatory School, and Author of Creating Citizens: Teaching Civics and Current Events in the History Classroom, Grades 6-9

"For too long, multiple choice and essays tests have narrowly been how we measure what social studies students know. David Sherrin's book "Authentic Assessment in Social Studies" helps gives teachers a roadmap for re-envisioning assessment as real world tasks that prepare them as citizens in a complex and global society. David Sherrin gives us an important view from inside the classroom, revealing how he has redesigned the assessment of his social studies students and offering models for how teachers can use creative and authentic assessments to give their students a much better understanding of their learning."—Christopher Martell, Ed.D., Assistant Professor of Social Studies Education, University of Massachusetts Boston
