This is the third in a four-book series describing 16 types of intelligent behavior called habits of mind. It considers how to assess and report student progress in using the habits of mind, maintaining that a critical attribute of intelligence is not only having information but also knowing how to act on it. After the "Series Foreword: Thinking on the Road of Life" (David Perkins), "Preface to the Series" (Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick), and "Preface to Book 3" (Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick), there are 8 chapters: (1) "Defining Indicators of Achievement" (Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick); (2) "Learning Through Reflection" (Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick); (3) "Assessing the Habits of Mind" (Arthur L. Costa and Bena Kallick); (4) "Wondering To Be Done" (Steve Seidel); (5) "Reporting Growth" (Arthur L.
