"In the everyday life of the school, the assessment of children with special needs is already a dilemma, both from the point of view of teachers to the point of view of pupils and their parents. Over the past decade, inclusive education has become a widely accepted and promoted model of organized teaching and learning that implies establishing an inclusive culture, creating an inclusive policy, and establishing inclusive practices. It is often challenging for teachers to assess the educational development of children with special needs, and they often express the need for precise and accurate guidance when it comes to applying assessment practices in inclusive classrooms. Each student's personalized educational plan must be implemented, including any necessary modifications related to knowledge assessment as well as the specific goals that each student should be able to achieve. A fair and acceptable system of knowledge assessment will make the assessment of student progress less stressful for everyone involved. Over the course of the school year, teachers assess pupils' knowledge on a regular basis and provide them with feedback (orally) regarding their achievement of curricular objectives on a regular basis. The primary objective of teacher assessment is not to evaluate pupils' knowledge, but to promote their learning and interpersonal skills, as well as improve the overall management of the education process. The book is divided into seven chapters." -- Back cover
