Michael Connell does a great job of unpacking this essential strategy. As a former practicing vocational evaluation specialist, I especially like the way he highlights the value of formative assessment for truly understanding individual learning.</p> <p>"Connell offers great examples, links to core research, and presents a range of representations and examples. <em>Using Formative Assessment</em></strong> is a well written book on an important topic. I've recently adopted it for my graduate UDL course at George Washington University."</p><p><strong><em>- Frances G.
