“Without dialogue, assessment is an empty and intellectually unfulfilling mechanical process removed from the profession of teaching and the process of learning. However, with dialogue –raising questions, seeking answers, interpreting evidence, implementing changes, and examining their effects – assessment becomes integral to our work. Internally driven assessment engages us in improving our students’ learning.”
