Culturally Responsive Assessment in Classrooms: Theory, Research, and Practice

Thu, April 24, 8:00 to 9:30am MDT (8:00 to 9:30am MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Meeting Room Level, Room 710

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The session is based on an NCME edited volume (in progress) that explores how a culturally responsive lens can shape classroom assessment purpose, design, implementation, use, and validation. Scholars who are writing about the implications of culturally responsive education on classroom assessment will discuss the main themes of their chapters. A discussant will present her reflections and perspective on the state of research in this area and major themes across the chapters. The goals for the session are to provide current perspectives on culturally responsive classroom assessment and to prompt discussion among the chapter authors and the audience about how classroom assessment must change to better align with a pluralistic and multicultural society.
