Abstract
Teacher knowledge, performance, and competence are coming under increased scrutiny because of assessment-laden mandates such as No Child Left Behind and Response to Intervention. While considerable research has focused on teacher practices, limited research has been done on teachers' perceptions regarding the usefulness and necessity of utilizing assessment for instructional purposes despite the fact that teacher perceptions impact performance. This paper presents the results of a study on the assessment practices and perceptions of in-service classroom teachers.
