The 'Types of Assessments' mind map template, created by William Green, provides a structured framework for evaluating educational assessment methods. It covers 7 core branches—Definition, Examples, Advantages, Disadvantages, Assessment of or for learning?, My Rationale, and Images—with 88 total nodes. This template helps educators and instructional designers analyze assessment types by exploring their characteristics, benefits, and drawbacks. Key nodes include 'Assessment of or for learning?' to distinguish formative and summative purposes, and 'My Rationale' for personal reflection. The template is organized as a radial mind map, making it easy to compare multiple assessment dimensions at a glance.
