Review

"Formative assessment is an important component of successfully considering the Universal Design for Learning framework. Michael Connell does a great job of unpacking this essential strategy. As a former practicing vocational evaluation specialist, I especially like the way he highlights the value of formative assessment for truly understanding individual learning. "Connell offers great examples, links to core research, and presents a range of representations and examples. Using Formative Assessment is a well written book on an important topic. I've recently adopted it for my graduate UDL course at George Washington University."- Frances G. Smith, EdD, Adjunct Professor, George Washington University
