Assessment for learning

Assalamualaikum w.r

I have read a book pertaining to the subject of Assessment for learning. It is by:

Paul Black- Emeritus professor at King's College is well known for his work in science education and in formative assessment.

Christine Harrison- taught science in London schools before coming to King's College. She combines research in assessment and development work with primary and secondary teachers.

Clare Lee- Taught secondary mathematics before becoming research fellow for teh king's Collee formative project. She is now Teacher Advisor for Assessment for the Warccickshire LEA.

Bethan Marshall- taught secondary English, drama and media and worked as English advisor for primary and secondary schools. Her researched is focussed on English andd on assessment.

Dylan William-Director of the Learning and Teaching Research Centre at ETS, Princeton, New Jersy, USA. Before that, he was a secondary school teacher in London, New Jer, and worked at KIng's College London from 1984 to 2003.

This book offers valuable insights into assessment for learning as teachers describe in their own words how they turned the ideas into practical action in their schools.

Personally it has answered my worries as to how best could I get my p4's english and science students to be ready for revision and to be responsible for their own learning. If we madrasah's teachers manage to implement it in our classroom we will have excellent students for PSLE target. Do get a copy, read and internalize it, digest it, sleep with it. Insyallah.
