Comprehensive list of assessment activities and strategies by RMC Research Corporation This list defines several assessment strategies that you can use in a classroom setting.

The common theme among these strategies is they provide alternatives to traditional standardized, normed, multiple-choice, or paper-and-pencil type methods.
