Assessment and Testing An Introduction

Assessment and Testing An Introduction

Originally published in 1972 there were many ‘classics’ dealing with assessment and testing on the market at the time but most of these left the inexperienced reader bewildered in the early stages because of their size and insufficient explanation of the many technical terms used. There were a distinct lack of books which gave students in Colleges of Education dealing with psychology for the first time a simple explanation of basic terms in assessment and testing and which introduced them briefly to the different types of tests available. Assessment and Testing aimed to fill this large gap. It looks at such key psychological terms as ‘sample’ ‘objectivity’ ‘subjectivity’ and such basic statistical terms such as ‘mean’ ‘standard deviation’ and ‘normal curve of distribution’. Because it assumes that the reader has no knowledge of such terms it gives careful and simply illustrated explanations of each. In the same way in simple language with any technical terms explained and illustrated it explains intelligence and personality tests questionnaires sociometric measures projection techniques and other areas of assessment and testing which every practising teacher will meet. The book aims to be essentially practical. It is appreciated all the time that the readers are those who will teach children. It is designed to provide a solid foundation upon which the reader can build later to augment his own experience of identifying children’s particular needs. | Assessment and Testing An Introduction

S. through up-to-date research on testing historical and contemporary examples of the struggles over such tests and information about how testing has fostered the privatization of public education in the U.

Unraveling the Assessment Industrial Complex Understanding How Testing Perpetuates Inequity and Injustice in America

Unraveling the Assessment Industrial Complex Understanding How Testing Perpetuates Inequity and Injustice in America

This book offers a comprehensive critique of how the assessment industry and standardized testing adversely impact students teachers and society. The authors present the case that the interconnected developments of the testing industry and the Assessment Industrial Complex (AIC) have effectively anchored American schooling to testing. Using an antiracist lens the authors deconstruct the AIC exposing the neoliberal agenda of education reformers and how proponents utilize the rhetoric of testing and the data extracted from them to normalize the reliance on AIC systems. This critique further exposes education reformers’ ideological agenda their hypocrisy and how they grossly profit from the AIC at the expense of society’s marginalized and most vulnerable students. The COVID-19 pandemic society’s racial unrest and anti-testing movements have aligned to underscore the need to examine systemic oppression and the impact it has on society through our education system. This text exposes how standardized testing perpetuates these injustices and provides the opportunity to disrupt the systems they rely upon and bolster the societal resistance that is needed. | Unraveling the Assessment Industrial Complex Understanding How Testing Perpetuates Inequity and Injustice in America

Testing Fresh Expressions Identity and Transformation

Testing Fresh Expressions Identity and Transformation

Testing Fresh Expressions investigates whether fresh expressions of church really do what is claimed for them by the fresh expressions movement and in particular whether their unique approach helps to reverse trends of decline experienced by traditional churches. Part 1 examines those claims and untangles their sociological and theological assumptions. From a careful study of factors underlying attendance decline and growth Part 2 argues that long-term decline can be resisted only if churches are better able to attract children the non-churched or both. Part 3 tests the comparative ability of a group of growing parish churches and a group of fresh expressions to resist trends of decline and discovers some intriguing social dynamics common to both groups. Part 4 argues that fresh expressions do not fulfil the unique role often claimed for them but that they do have the capacity to help reinvigorate the whole church. | Testing Fresh Expressions Identity and Transformation

Naturalism and Our Knowledge of Reality Testing Religious Truth-claims

Naturalism and Our Knowledge of Reality Testing Religious Truth-claims

Philosophical naturalism is taken to be the preferred and reigning epistemology and metaphysics that underwrites many ideas and knowledge claims. But what if we cannot know reality on that basis? What if the institution of science is threatened by its reliance on naturalism? R. Scott Smith argues in a fresh way that we cannot know reality on the basis of naturalism. Moreover the fact-value split has failed to serve our interests of wanting to know reality. The author provocatively argues that since we can know reality it must be due to a non-naturalistic ontology best explained by the fact that human knowers are made and designed by God. The book offers fresh implications for the testing of religious truth-claims science ethics education and public policy. Consequently naturalism and the fact-value split are shown to be false and Christian theism is shown to be true. | Naturalism and Our Knowledge of Reality Testing Religious Truth-claims
