Opis

Timeously this book addresses global financial cutbacks and organisational restructuring that demand maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Cutting-edge information on synoptic assessment from this book can address current financial and organisational restructuring issues in a cost effective manner. This book integrates all disciplines so that average and below average achievers can enjoy viewing the world holistically. The novelty of the presentation appeals to all learning styles and preferences. Simplicity, ease of reading and explanations of normally complex concepts are powerful contributions to the field of education that cannot be easily overlooked. Numerous tried-and-tested, easy-to-follow strategies are presented for developing effective synoptic assessments. Several assessment instruments are available for personal use. Each book section begins with a relevant quotation (often a one-liner) from the public domain that is meant to leave the reader engaged; provide food for thought; and better facilitate internalising ideas presented. The text is interspaced with relevant shareware graphics from the public domain, operating under the Creative Commons Copyright licenses.
