Advancing Assessment for Student Success: Supporting Learning by Creating Connections Across Assessment, Teaching, Curriculum, and Cocurriculum in Collaboration with Our Colleagues and Our Students. Routledge.About this Book:This book examines ways that assessment practices promote student success. It begins with an overview of the field of assessment, which can help faculty understand where we have been,what has worked, and opportunities for refining assessment practices. An invaluable takeaway is Wood’s distinction between learning goals and learning outcomes, with the latter being specific to students’ actions based on operational verbs. The SMART framework for developing learning outcomes is a powerful tool and stands for the following criteria: (1) Specific; (2) Measurable; (3) Action-oriented; (4) Reasonable; and (5) Time-bound.
