Performance Assessment: Moving Beyond the Standardized Test

In an age of multicultural classrooms and new understandings about multiple intelligences, what role should standardized tests play? And what direction should performance assessment take in tomorrow’s schools? In this timeless program, Dr. Art Costa—Professor Emeritus at California State University, Former President of the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development, and a leading proponent of the explicit teaching of thinking—addresses the urgent need to create viable alternatives to standardized tests that can measure creativity, problem-solving, and cooperation.
