Peter H. Johnston: Running Records: A Self-Tutoring Guide and Knowing Literacy: Constructive Literacy Assessment

Johnston offers commendable challenges and practical suggestion for changes in traditional school practice. Knowing Literacy: Constructive Literacy Assessment would be an ideal text for pre-service and in-service teachers, who could implement the assessment strategies johnston has described in supervised field placements."
