A Knowledge Base for the Teaching Profession: What would it look like and how can we get one?
To improve classroom teaching in a steady, lasting way, the teaching profession needs a knowledge base that grows and improves. In spite
of the continuing efforts of researchers, archived research knowledge has had little effect on the improvement of practice in the average classroom.

Defining and Assessing Learning: Exploring Competency-Based Initiatives
This is a report of the Postsecondary Education Cooperative Working Group on Comptency-Based Initiatives in Postsecondary Education. This document examines the use of competency-based initiatives across postsecondary education
in the United States and presents principles that underlie successful implementation drawn from
selected case studies.

Design Patterns for Assessing Science Inquiry
Designing systems for assessing inquiry in science requires expertise across domains
that rarely resides in a single individual: science content and learning, assessment design,
task authoring, psychometrics, delivery technologies, and systems engineering. The goal of
the Principled Assessment Designs for Inquiry (PADI) project is to provide a conceptual
framework for designing inquiry tasks that coordinates such efforts and provides supporting
tools to facilitate them.

Enhancing the Design and Delivery of Assessment Systems: A Four Process Architecture.
Persistent elements and relationships underlie the design and delivery of educational assessments, despite their widely varying purposes, contexts, and data types. A four-process architecture is presented for the delivery of assessments: Activity Selection, Presentation, Response Processing, and Summary Scoring.

Feasibility of Measuring Problem-Solving Using a Click-Through Interface.
In this study we investigated the feasibility of a novel user interface to support the measurement of problem-solving processes. Our research questions addressed the use of a “click-through” interface to measure the “generate-and-test” problem-solving process for a design problem.

Multimedia simulations: A new use for technology in tertiary education
A relatively untapped use for computing technology in tertiary teaching involves simulations in which graphics, photographs, sound and video are used to create realistic 'microworlds' which students explore in order to solve a problem. Simulations structure the learning process in quite different ways to textbooks, lectures or videos.

Teaching Educational Games (wiki of resources)
David Wiley said, in sharing this resources on ITFORUM:
"You might enjoy the Educational Games Wiki we used during our presentation at Games, Learning, and Society yesterday. In addition to loading it up with materials before hand, we had 60 resource additions during the presentation itself..

The Promise of Network-Based Assessment for Supporting the Development of Teachers' Technology Integration and Implementation Skills
Many advances in educational assessment can now be implemented using emerging technologies (Pellegrino, Chudowsky, & Glaser, 2001; Mislevy, Steinberg, Almond, Haertel & Penuel, 2001). THis has special significance for fields like teacher education where problem-solving skills and other forms of procedural knowledge receive particular emphasis.

Theories Frameworks & Models
Models, like myths and metaphors, help us to make sense of our world. An instructional design model gives structure and meaning to an I.D.
