Move from LEGACY PRACTICE where learning is assumed to be a by-product of content and skill development. Assessments are typically high-stakes, taken on a single day, not aligned to the real world, and often are indirect measures of learning to LEARNER-CENTERED PRACTICE where evidence of learning is a balanced assessment system used throughout the learning process through varied means such as performance, application, demonstration and student interaction.
