This book is for teachers who want to honor their students' experiences as writers and readers--and their own. --Maja Wilson

In Reimagining Writing Assessment, Maja Wilson shows us that by replacing the scales embedded in rubrics with new tools--an array of interpretive lenses designed to observe and describe growth--we can create healthier readers and writers who are more proficient in the long run and more motivated to read and write. She reminds us that assess in its Latin derivation means sit beside. In this book she models new ways of sitting beside, listening to student stories of the writing, respecting the writer's intentions, and telling stories of our reading.
