Recenzii

"Restorative Assessment provides excellent information and training for teachers and an in-depth understanding of students of today.  The practices recommended in this book will transform schools and create challenging, healthy learning environments for all children."
"Restorative Assessment challenges the present way of looking at assessment through research-based information. Restoring assessment to its rightful place as an integral part of teaching rather than a separate entity is critical to positive student outcomes and overall success!"
"Why waste time on assessment for just more data when you can have assessment that is restorative and intentionally creates more learning opportunities for all students? This book offers the structure for a purpose-driven assessment system that uses student-centered formative assessments as a means to respond to learning, re-engage students and immediately deliver specific, appropriate instruction to allow all students to succeed."
