Narrated by: Douglas B. Reeves Ph.D., Jesse Smith

Standards are the foundation of our educational systems today. Fairness, rigor, and high achievement for all students are the focus of standards-based schools. Yet the standards movement means nothing if it does not improve student achievement in the classroom. In this revised edition, Dr. Reeves provides step-by-step guidance on how to design and implement standards-based performance assessment to make improved teaching and learning a reality in the classroom.©2004 Advanced Learning Press, a division of Advanced Learning Centers, Inc.

Good book!

A very good book If you're trying to understand the justification for standards-based grading.

The narrator is very robotic and speaks in that fake news anchor voice, but it's not too bad.
