We ask students to memorize reams of information that they will rarely if ever use again, but we often fail to teach them the critical skills needed to meet the daily challenges of the 21st century, skills such as information literacy, collaboration, metacognitive reflection, and self-assessment. One reason we have shied away from teaching such skills is that we are unsure how to assess them. Thus, in this text I offer a detailed set of steps and examples, including rubrics, of how to summatively and formatively assess the skills our students need. For K-16 educators.
Marianne Miserandino's Personality Pedagogy - an excellent new Wiki-based site that presents lots of resources for instructors of personality and related courses -- the Wiki format also allows you to add to the site.
Amy Sweetman's Introductory Psychology Resources - also Wiki-based
Jon Mueller's Authentic Assessment Toolbox - a how-to text on creating authentic tasks, rubrics and standards for measuring and improving student learning
Assessments of Information Literacy available online
