Strengthening Partnerships to Improve Classroom Assessment Research, Practice, and Policy

Session Type: Organized Discussion

Abstract

According to Mark Wilson’s 2016 remarks, educational measurement’s core activity is to help in the educational progress of each student as they learn; the topic of classroom assessment is indeed crucial for the entire educational enterprise and should be seen as the most likely pathway for educational measurement to make a positive and central contribution to education (https://www.ncme.org/community/ncme-committees/classroom-assessment/classroom-assessment129). Since these remarks, a taskforce was formed to elevate the position of classroom assessment within NCME. Now a committee, we seek to engage all members and conference attendees in a organized discussion about Committee initiatives and goals in order to gather feedback on alignment with NCME’s broader mission and vision.
