 Unprofessional Mediocre Work August 17, 2007

The author of this book indirectly calls the reader cluck, uses the word loser and that's just in chapter one of the 4th edition. I maybe young, but I refute this sort of garbage. You can't smile at anything that has this putrid element. People like Popham induce students to have low self-esteem and probably become criminals. It's shocking to know that a well-known publishing company and God-knows how many universities require this book for their students. Does Popham want us future teachers to call our students CLUCKS! This is outrageous! This makes our educational system appear like a circus. I don't care how proficient an English teacher Popham is, in my book, Popham is an anti-educator. Inferior mental processes have no space in our schools. I choose to be an educator not a CLUCK!!!
 If you want to see improvement in your student's progress you've gotta get this book!!!! July 14, 2007
Before reading this book, I was at a loss in my classroom as to how to use assessments to monitor progress, evaluate my instructional methods, and to be sure that students were mastering the content. Mr. Popham gives precise research based strategies to do ALL these things and MORE. Most books on assessment are dry and so dense you loathe having to read them but Mr. Popham exceeded my expectations in this respect. I don't know how he did it but the text is informational and humorous at the same time. I actually laughed out loud at some of his expressions...I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! I would suggest this text for any school district that wants to understand the fallibility of standardized/high-stakes tests and wants to be sure that students learn the content represented on these tests and not just how to take the test.
Informative and funny June 27, 2007
I'm writing this in response to a couple of other reviewers who didn't like the author's writing style. I'm currently using this book for a class, and I'm thrilled to actually be enjoying a textbook for a change. I find the comments hilarious. In addition, the book offers good, practical advice, with very little useless background information. I'm finding this book a totally refreshing change from what I've been subjected to in education textbooks so far.
Got book in great shape and fast. June 8, 2007
