About this listen

 Standards are the foundation of our educational systems today. Fairness, rigor, and high achievement for all students are the focus of standards-based schools. Yet the standards movement means nothing if it does not improve student achievement in the classroom. In this revised edition, Dr. Reeves provides step-by-step guidance on how to design and implement standards-based performance assessment to make improved teaching and learning a reality in the classroom.©2004 Advanced Learning Press, a division of Advanced Learning Centers, Inc.

Any additional comments?

Again, this book wasn't relevant to me as I'm not from the U.S.A.nor am I involved with schools but I still found it a little interesting to hear thoughts on how children should be taught.

Not relevant to me but slightly interesting.
