Curriculum Development + the Role of Assessment

All too often measurement and assessment practices are not considered until after a curriculum project is completed. That means that assessments become an add-on feature, and as a result may be seen by teachers as not being an integral part of instruction. This project will focus on how measurement and assessment practices can, and should be, an integral part of curriculum development. It will explore and document practices that will lead to a model articulating how curriculum can benefit from measurement and assessment when they are part of development from the beginning of the process.
