Which assessment method involves students keeping a collection of their work to show progress over time?

Informal reading inventory
Portfolio assessment
Running record
Standardized testing

The correct answer is: Informal reading inventory

Portfolio assessment involves students keeping a collection of their work to show progress over time. This method allows students to showcase their growth, reflect on their achievements, and take ownership of their learning. Unlike standardized testing, which often provides a snapshot of a student's performance at a specific point in time, portfolio assessment offers a more holistic view of a student's development. Informal reading inventories and running records are useful for assessing specific reading skills and strategies but do not focus on tracking progress over time like portfolio assessment does.
