The College Classroom Assessment Compendium Reviews

The College Classroom Assessment Compendium hits the sweet spot where expert substance meets collegial counsel. The table of contents reads like a 'greatest hits' of the assessment topics that college educators must continually address, and the book is packed with gems of practical, in-the-moment advice and the research to back them up. I expect this Compendium will become a relied-upon companion for both faculty and faculty developers alike.

-Michael Sweet, Senior Associate Director of the Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning through Research at Northeastern University, USA

Parkes and Zimmaro have created a terrific tool for college classroom assessment that will be useful to both novice and experienced instructors. Organized as brief, readable entries on assessment topics, the book allows users to look up their topic of interest and find the latest research and recommendations. Users of this book will gain confidence in their assessment decisions and garner solid information about student learning that will help both instructors and students.

-Susan M. Brookhart, Professor Emerita in the School of Education at Duquesne University, USA

The College Classroom Assessment Compendium is a must-have book for all K-16 educators. Each teaching tip, delivered in two-page vignettes, provides practical, research-based wisdom on difficult issues like fairness in grading, extra credit, or turning in late work. As a teacher and administrator for the past three decades, this is the FIRST resource to which I would direct any faculty member with an interest in improving their craft.

-Joseph Gerda, Professor of Mathematics at College of the Canyons, USA
