An observation made by the facilitator of this session (I was facilitating a different session so I couldn't attend) was that the teachers in the discussion group think of assessment as the usual standardized tests (TABE, BEST, etc). Only two of the teachers at this session mentioned alternative assessments. Have others found this to be true in the ABLE teachers you are in contact with? What sugggestions do you have for changing the thinking of folks? Thanks, Dianna Baycich OLRC 330-672-7841 1-800-765-2897 x27841 dbaycich@literacy.kent.edu Under democracy one party always devotes its chief energies to trying to prove the other party is unfit to rule - and both commonly succeed and are right.
