| Courts, Patrick L. and Kathleen H.
McInerney. Assessment in Higher Education: Politics,
Pedagogy, and Portfolios. Praeger Pub, 1993.
Type of Portfolio: Student evaluation/grading
Description: As part of the
American school reform movement, administrators are
searching for ways of measuring students' skills and
progress within the system. Courts and McInerney focus
on the qualitative assessment college level. The authors
are concerned that the teaching and learning process
will be subsumed by assessment and will become even
more test-driven than it now is. A critical look at
multiple-choice, standardized examinations shows how
unmindful our educational testing is of psychosocial
diversity. The authors warn that in upgrading American
education nationwide, more effective and self-confirming
measures should be faculty-developed and locally-controlled.
They propose a new compact among teachers and students
as they take mutual responsibility for the learning
process and changing curriculum.

| Eyler, Janet, Dwight Giles, Jr.,

in Service-Learning. Vanderbilt University, 1996.
Type of Portfolio: Reflection
Description: A practical, hands-on
guide to incorporating reflection into service activities--either
as part of a course or in stand-alone programs. The
reflection techniques can easily be transferred to
other activities where reflection is key (portfolios,
career planning, study abroad, etc.). Interesting
reflection activities for the reader to help us "practice
what we preach." Uses a variety of learning styles,
developmental learning strategies, and student testimonials.
Helpful section on convincing others that service-learning
is beneficial.

They reprinted quite a few, but they

Dwight and I are writing a more complete
guide that goes beyond reflection and deals with all
the aspects of establishing service- learning in higher
ed. Jossey-Bass will have this out in about a year.

Becoming Reflective Students and Teachers With Portfolios
and Authentic Assessment. American Psychological Association,
1994. Type of Portfolio:
Student evaluation/grading
Reflection
Description: This book details
how teachers can encourage students to assess their
own academic progress on a daily basis and develop
critical thinking and study skills in the process.
It explores how students can become reflective and
self-regulated learners - and what it can mean to
teachers to become reflective models of life- long
learning.
The authors present the concept of
authentic assessment, in which students actively evaluate
their own learning in ways that are meaningful (or
authentic) to their educational experience. Based
on a pilot project in Michigan schools, the authors
discuss the student portfolio of work as an assessment
vehicle as well as a bridge between school and home.
The text includes ideas and suggestions
for activities that provide both learning and assessment
opportunities.
