  • Clear objectives to guide you through each chapter.
  • Rationale for an alternative to traditional assessment practices.
  • Portfolio guidelines by grade and subject.
  • Technology for enhancing portfolio implementation.
  • Document a more accurate, thorough and fair picture of what students are learning.
