′As a current student I found it particularly difficult to access the key points in academic literature but this book gives an excellent explanation of the important aspects of the different theories and assessment for learning. I would thoroughly recommend it to all students no matter what stage of their course they are at. It isn′t like many of the academic books I have tried to read which are filled with technical jargon, it is precise and concise and very enjoyable′ - Kaye Meakin BA (Hons) Early Primary Education year 3
