Assessment for Learning without Limits
เบเปเบฝเบงเบเบฑเบเบเบถเปเบก e-book เบเบตเป
Inspired by a relentless focus on every childโs capacity to learn, the book explores what can be achieved when we remove limits on learning. School leaders and teachers, struggling against practices that seeks to define, label and rank, explore the opportunity to view assessment reform as a means of reducing inequity through โlearning without limitsโ principles of collaboration, professional learning and inquiry. Children share their views and offer powerful insights into what may be achieved when limits are lifted on their learning. Consequently a liberating and alternative view of assessment is presented, achieved through children and adults working in partnership.
At a time when schools are in pursuit of new assessment practices and reporting of progress, the insights in this book about what is possible are highly pertinent for individual teachers, school leaders and teacher educators wondering how best to foster childrenโs learning capacity.
โEveryone who cares about childrenโs lives and their futures should read this book!โ
Carol S. Dweck, Professor of Psychology, Stanford University, US and author of Mindset

"Alison Peacock makes a powerful case for trust and dialogue as the essential building blocks of this 'different way'."
Mary Jane Drummond and Susan Hart, Co-authors of Learning without Limits and Creating Learning without Limits, UK
"In contrast to some rather 'dry' books on assessment that start with abstract principles and seek illustrations of them, this book works the other way around. It is full of rich stories of practice and the voices of children and their teachers."
Mary James, Professor Emerita, University of Cambridge Faculty of Education, UK
