description: William E. Sedlacek--one of the nation's leading authorities on the topic of noncognitive assessment--challenges the use of the SAT and other standardized tests as the sole assessment tool for college and university admissions. In Beyond the Big Test , Sedlacek presents a noncognitive assessment method that can be used in concert with the standardized tests.

Beyond the Big Test is filled with examples of assessment tools and illustrative case studies that clearly show how educators have used this innovative method
