Developing mathematics understanding through cognitive diagnostic assessment tasks

Assessment is undertaken for a variety of reasons but none so important as when it is undertaken to inform the teaching-learning process with respect to determining the extent of individual student knowledge and the effectiveness of teaching. This book contains Cognitive Diagnostic Assessment Tasks (CDAT) to elicit students' understanding of the important mathematical concepts and processes that are required for processing whole numbers, fractions and probability effectively.
