I really enjoyed this course. It has taught me to plan more meaningful types of assessments that target every learner in my classroom. It is interesting to know that, as teachers, we do all these strategies in our classroom but I never really recorded or organized these tools to help me and my students for future lessons.

I really enjoyed the class, I just had a tough time this year because I had a lot going on in my personal life and at first I was going overboard and making it way too hard for myself. In the end I finished up and hope to continue taking graduate mathematics classes at Fresno Pacific University.

This was an excellent course! The assignments helped me work towards understanding how to implement and use different types of assessments. This was my first online course and I was initially worried that it might be difficult to communicate with my professor. Paul Reimer was excellent with communication though! Whenever I had a question he would respond the same day and he graded all assignments within one day of them being submitted. When I need to take another online class I will look at his classes first!

This course explains well the best ways for teachers to analyze student work and offer varying types of assessment. Professor Reimer quickly responds to e-mail questions, grades work in a timely manner and offers positive reinforcement to enhance learning. The assignments or assessments promote critical thinking that will send you on your way to be a better educator than you were the day before. Thank you Fresno and Professor Reimer for offering this course.

I am glad that I have taken this course. The textbook is clear and will serve me as a useful resource. The information is helpful and reading the opinions of other teachers is insightful.

This course was very informative. It made me really consider how and why we assess. It made me look at different ways to assess my students to learn about what they know or common misconceptions. I really enjoyed the course.
