Confront the emerging assessment crisis in American education Rick Stiggins details profound changes in the mission of our schools that requires a bold new vision of excellence in assessment in those schools. He combines decades of experience with international research to define a vision that uses assessment to supercharge student learning, not merely measure it—to support student growth, not merely hold schools accountable for it. Revolutionize Assessment : "Noted authority Rick Stiggins offers an important ′wake up call′ as he documents how our nation has lost its way on the assessment road, and offers a hopeful prescription for how we can reclaim the promise of assessments that truly support meaningful learning." — Jay McTighe, Co-author of the Understanding by Design® series "I want this book in the hands of every teacher and school leader in American Schools." —Sharon Robinson, Executive Director of the Association of American Colleges of Teacher Education and of the Learning First Alliance
