Listen "What Karate Kid Teaches Us About Assessment Types"
Episode Synopsis
We transition from our Assessment Methods series to our Assessment Types series with the help of the Karate Kid, as Mr. Miyagi’s instruction to Daniel LaRusso is illustrative for distinguishing between these two categorizations. Afterwards, we preview the upcoming series by defining assessment of learning as well as assessment for learning.
