Summary: Three major assessments are described in this chapter; Rubrics, portfolios, and student self assessments. Each assessment was explained. We were shown the benefits of each assessments and when they would best be used.
Connections: We have all used each of the assessments and find that self assessments are great because they allow the student to go over his or her work another time. It also allows the student to tell you something about their piece that they may not feel comfortable asking you in person, or that you might consider when grading their work. It also forces students to be honest with themselves, if students give themselves a grade they then have to justify it. In many cases students will be harder on themselves than the teacher.
