Description: This book uses a practical approach to introduce readers to the elements of assessment which are essential to quality teaching. Measuring and Evaluating School Learning focuses on the information and skills teachers need to design, develop, analyze, and interpret tests and to use test results in planning, monitoring, and evaluating instruction. Since its first appearance, this book has presented a systems-based approach to classroom assessment. Readers are challenged to consider their students' characteristics, school district curricula, and their particular school's environment and resources in developing their tests. The third edition has built on this systems foundation and anchors these concepts to recent reform movements related to learner-centered and curriculum-centered classroom assessment and teacher accountability.
