Klappentext zu „Achievement Testing in U.S. Elementary and Secondary Schools “
The concept and results of achievement testing are the subject of serious conversation for many Americans - from educators to legislators. However, few teachers and parents view such testing as an integral part of teaching and learning. Testing standards of key education organizations and opinions of concerned citizens may be fleeting guides. The history of testing, the process for developing a formal test, testing abuse, misuse, and limitations are not widely known or understood even though we realize that testing is critical and here to stay. Achievement Testing explains the complicated concepts in a clear and user-friendly way to beginning teachers and students, as well as to experienced teachers who are looking for guidance in the ever-changing educational landscape.

Pressezitat
"This book will be invaluable to educators and stakeholders - especially in the current climate of high-stakes testing. It provides critical insights into the world of testing with clarity and a historical perspective and caveats. It will enrich my undergraduates as well as my graduate students in the area of testing." (Gloria S. Smith, Professor, Michigan State University)"Testing is the cornerstone of most of the efforts to improve education and leave no child behind. It is essential that educators have a firm grasp on the basics of assessment lest we make serious mistakes in assessing progress. Joan M. Baker's book provides a valuable resource for educators to turn to when they need to know those basics." (Roger C. Farr, Professor, Indiana University, Coauthor of 'The Metropolitan Achievement Test')
