Abstract: The study was designed to enhance teachers' understating of students' learning by using assessment tasks. Four third-grade teachers and the researcher collaboratively set up a school-based assessment team in the two-year Assessment Practices in Mathematics Classroom project that assisted teachers in implementing assessment as integral part of instruction. The assessment tasks along with students' responses to the tasks and classroom observation were major methods of data collection. Interweaving the tasks with analyzing students' responses to the tasks was a valuable way of assessment in which students enhanced their learning and teachers gained better understanding of students learning informing their instructional decision- making. (Contains 9 figures.) [For complete proceedings, see ED500858.]
