Direct linkZorin, Barbara; Hunsader, Patricia D.; Thompson, Denisse R. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2013
This article shows how to modify classroom evaluation items to avoid four potential difficulties that limit a teacher's insight into students' mathematical understanding by addressing these issues: (1) poor choice of numbers; (2) implausible or inappropriate contexts; (3) inclusion of graphics that do not help make learning visible; and…

Silver, Edward A.; Cai, Jinfa – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2005
Specific examples are used to discuss assessment, an integral part of mathematics instruction, with problem posing and assessment of problem posing. General assessment criteria are suggested to evaluate student-generated problems in terms of their quantity, originality, and complexity.

Fernandes, Anthony; Anhalt, Cynthia O.; Civil, Marta – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2009
To assess students' developing literacy, teachers regularly listen as individuals read. Similarly, listening to students talk about their mathematical reasoning is a powerful way for teachers to assess students' problem-solving abilities and mathematical understanding. Traditional paper-and-pencil tests have long been the main avenue to evaluate…

Peer reviewedParker, Diane L.; Picard, Anthony J. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 1997
Describes a 7-year-old whose mathematical performance in class embodies much of what is important according to "Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics". She speaks little English and therefore scores low on standardized, norm-referenced tests. Concludes that changes in curriculum and classroom instruction require changes in…
