Assessment4Teachers

I  created this site in response to the Teacher Needs in the Classroom Assessment Study, and to provide access to current research based, best practices in assessment. Most importantly, the blog on the site allows teachers to connect and communicate with their colleagues.  
Many thanks to Lena Metuq who provided the Inuktitut audio for the site.
