Everyday Assessment

$22.55

By Catherine Patterson and Alma Fleet

This Research in Practice Series book invites educators to engage with current thinking about assessment, as guided by four big ideas: 

  • Assessment in early childhood education is part of everyday practice.
  • Assessment involves all stakeholders—children, families and colleagues.
  • Assessment practices are multiple and flexible, capturing the complexities of children’s learning, development and wellbeing.
  • Assessment can be understood and made visible through analytical narratives such as pedagogical documentation.
