Elizabeth A. Tuck – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Assessment literacy is an "individual's understanding of the fundamental assessment concepts and procedures deemed likely to influence educational decisions" (Popham, 2018, p. 2). The ability to make evidence-based decisions has become a non-negotiable skill for all educators. Unfortunately, most teachers do not have the skills or…

Filderman, Marissa J.; Toste, Jessica R.; Cooc, North – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2021
Although national legislation and policy call for the use of student assessment data to support instruction, evidence suggests that teachers lack the knowledge and skills required to effectively use data.
