In Leading the Way to Assessment for Learning, authors Anne Davis, Sandra Herbst, and Beth Parrott Reynolds encourage leaders to take on the role of learner. School and system leaders must fully understand the principles being practiced in the classroom if they are to provide support to their educators and students. Leading the Way to Assessment for Learning describes indicators of successful assessment practices and examples of how leaders have modeled assessment for learning to colleagues and students in their school communities. In this useful guide, leaders will be provided with a variety of practical and proven ideas to use assessment to support the teaching of students, the learning of adults, and their own work as educational leaders. Each chapter includes: A detailed description of assessment at the classroom level Indicators of the classroom-based application of key principles of assessment for learning Strategies to support classroom teachers in their learning Ways to consider modeling key principles in one's own work as a lead learner
