assessment
It's my understanding that in order for a student to succeed in a classroom, the teacher must make sure that the materials are aligned with a student's needs. While one on one assessments are not ideal for content area classrooms (due to time restraints), teachers can access important information about a students reading ability through alternative content area assessments like cloze testing. Though SOME additional time and effort is necessary for these types of assessments, if a teacher's goal is student success, he or she will take the time so that students are matched with appropriate materials. This not so great picture (sorry) is representative of how there is a necessary balance between time and understanding in order to have student success.
