Potential of assessment resource banks as sources of information on student performance and for curriculum evaluation

Cedric Croft, 2000
 
Assessment Resource Banks (ARBs) in mathematics, science and English have been developed at the New Zealand Council for Educational Research, mainly for school-based assessment purposes. The ARBs became available to New Zealand schools via the Internet in March 1997. Since that time the number of available assessment resources has increased and the style has broadened to include many performance assessment tasks.
