Book excerpt: Assessing student learning is a highly important issue in schools today. Focusing on the role of the school library media specialist, this is the first full-length book to go beyond the theoretical and address the practical application of the assessment of student learning in the school library media center. It is an important source for school library media specialists as they address their roles as "teachers" in schools, and the subsequent accountability issues associated with that role. Placing students at the center of the assessment equation, the book addresses the following topics as they relate to school library instructional programs: The purpose of assessment; The essential elements of assessment; Knowing what to assess; Multiple methods for assessment; The management and communication of assessment results. Presenting doable, practical methods, this in-depth analysis for the school library field will help school library media specialists confidently become involved in the assessment of student learning. Educators centrally involved in K-12 programs, including district, regional and state library media coordinators, building level administrators and library school educators will find much of value in this book, as well as K-12 teachers charged with providing evidence of student achievement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, theory is blended with practical application to provide a concise, up-to-date explanation of how school librarians can work with students and teachers to assess for learning in 21st century schools. Coauthors Harada and Yoshina authored the first text that focused on learning assessment in a school library context. In this revised and expanded version of Assessing for Learning: Librarians and Teachers as Partners, they continue to shed light on the issue of school librarians helping students to assess for learning. The book begins with a brief discussion of national reform efforts and the importance of assessment for effective learning within this context. The balance of the book provides numerous strategies and tools for involving students as well as library media specialists in assessment activities, emphasizing the importance of students assessing for their own learning. It also provides specific examples of how assessment can be incorporated into various library-related learning activities. All chapters in this second edition have been updated with additional information, and three new chapters on assessing for critical thinking, dispositions, and tech-related learning have been added.
