EDU 295 Introduction to Educational Assessment

This Assessment Course is intended to introduce teacher candidates to concepts and vocabulary of assessment, as well as the assessment process from choice of assessment through to interpreting and reporting of results. The course is part of the undergraduate education sequence. It should be taken early in the education program, preferably the first semester of the sophomore year either prior to or at same time as EDU 250 or EDU 221. Later courses in the sequence contain more discipline-specific components of assessment: EDU 355 examines assessment for inclusive education, EDU 405 and 406 for literacy, and EDU 221 for early childhood.
