Unfortunately, the book suffers from several irredeemable weaknesses. First, in declining to offer “concrete illustrations of quality assessments spanning the immense array of academic subjects,” Stiggins makes his argument abstract to an extent that may interfere with comprehension. The rationale for this choice (“I lack sufficient content expertise”) is unsatisfying, and some readers may feel that mentally translating a specific example from one discipline into the language of their own would be less onerous than having to imagine all examples from scratch. Also problematic is the insufficient explanation of the basis of Stiggins’ recommendations. Presumably, his thinking is largely informed by firsthand experience as a college instructor and as the founder and one-time leader of the Assessment Training Institute (Portland, OR).
