ABSTRACT
This chapter discussed assesments and how important it is to consider all of the intelligences when giving assessments. This chapter states that the two most important types of observation are observation and documentation. Standardized testing is impersonal and treats all students the smae when the reality is they are very different. It suggests testing students in multiple ways to understand what allows them the best chance for success. The chapter also discusses assessing in eight different ways and MI portfolios.
REFLECTION
This chapter gave the impression to the group that standardized test were a horrible thing. Our group was split on this issue Audra and I believed that standardized tests left little room for students to be creative, explaining the material, or interpretation. Chelsae felt as though standardized tests were very useful in getting some information from the students. It was great that they were able to provide us with ways of assessing all of the multiple intelligences.
