Traditional methods of assessing students deals with quantity, not quality. In other words, if it can be measured with numbers (quantified) it is easily analyzed and people can draw objective conclusions about a student. The problem with traditional assessments is that values cannot be measured. How can you measure effort with numbers as you would a right or wrong question and answer? If you are a holistic teacher and wish to measure values, you need to come up with creative rubrics that somehow quantify an overlooked ability. For example, can you integrate music skills into a history class? Or what about art skills into a math class? Could you measure political activism in an english class? Can you measure interpersonal skills in a traditional science class? If you think outside the box you are not enslaved to a purely traditional mindset. I hope this helps. God bless.
