I recommend this book because it provides two different yet harmonious perspectives for how to achieve a sense of fulfillment in both our professional and personal lives. I like how the book is broken into 12 practices, each supported by relatable stories and anecdotes.

Assessing Student Learning: A Common Sense Guide, 3rd Edition by Linda Suskie

Assessing Student Learning: A Common Sense Guide, 3rd Edition by Linda Suskie

Content

Suskie takes a common-sense approach toward assessing learning, which makes her book relatable and easy to read. It is easy to skip to the chapters or sections most useful to you at the moment, though a cover-to-cover approach lays the needed foundations of building measurable goals and developing effective curriculum before diving into a robust assessment toolbox.
