It explores the difference between soft edges and hard edges regarding alignment between students' and teachers' needs and the assessment practices that are meant to meet them and how to spot indicators of hard and soft edges in classroom practices. 606 $aEducational tests and measurements$zUnited States 606 $aEducational evaluation$zUnited States 606 $aIndividualized instruction$zUnited States 606 $aCompetency-based education$zUnited States 615 0$aEducational tests and measurements 615 0$aEducational evaluation 615 0$aIndividualized instruction 615 0$aCompetency-based education 676 $a371.27/1 700 $aWhite$b Katie$f1977-$01552180 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792792303321 996 $aSoftening the edges$93811995 997 $aUNINA
