Abstract

This chapter examine the role of self-assessment to center elementary learners' participation and ownership in the learning process. Beginning with a literature review to explore the need for more student-centered assessment practices, the chapter then delves into a description and a classroom vignette to demonstrate the use of three approaches (checklists, rubrics, and open-ended responses) to facilitate self-assessment. The chapter concludes with additional suggestions for application to content area connections and recommendations for digital integration.
