What Role Do I Play in Assessment? [WLOs: 1, 2] [CLO: 1]. 1st Post Due by Day 3. Regardless of the age of children
you plan to work with, assessment will be a part of the work you do. “Teachers have a professional responsibility to
know about and thoughtfully select assessment strategies” (McAfee, Leong, & Bodrova, 2016, p. 8). Therefore, it is
important to understand what your role and responsibility is when it comes to assessment, as well as what the current
practices in assessment are today.
