Assessment Links

http://www.ntlf.com/html/lib/bib/assess.htm
The above link provides a great definition of classroom assessment. It also provides a convenient table of different assessments and a summary of what they are, what to do with them, and time needed. This link provides us with eight different ways to assess learning

While the above link is meant for assessing language-based classes, I believe it could apply to more than just language. It divides assessments into two categories: tradition tests and alternative assessments. Both of these categories can be applied to any class.

Unlike the other two sites, this one doesn't spend much time talking about different methods of assessment but instead focuses on what assessing is. It provides the characteristics of the assessment process which is important to know when creating assessments.
