The authors of this innovative resource propose that with the proper rubrics and procedures to score written case responses, cases can and should also be seen as authentic, effective evaluation tools. Cases supply hypothetical yet realistic situations, and candidate responses to the cases offer a glimpse into the candidates' thinking and application processes. The cases and rubrics in this text, which are based on IRA's Standards for Reading Professionals--Revised 2003, can foster the use of high-level, critical thinking skills among candidates by having them suggest what should be done for each case and why, and basing their responses on theory, experience, or research.
