What Is a Portfolio Assessment

Introduction

There are many techniques special education teachers use to evaluate the progress and learning issues of a student in his or her classroom. These techniques are usually referred to as non standardized forms of assessment. One of the most popular types of classroom assessment is called a portfolio assessment. This Parent Teacher Conference Handout will explain this type of classroom assessment to parents who may not be aware of the purpose and use of such a technique.
