Measuring Growth in Educational Settings


Add your own review!

Overview

This book is about the process of measuring and evaluating student growth in educational settings. Using large-scale assessments to measure student growth has increasingly become a major point of emphasis in systems of educational accountability. The complete process of designing, calibrating, evaluating, interpreting, and maintaining a developmental score scale is not well understood, and with one notable exception, not well documented. The book covers conceptual foundations, developmental score scales, and modeling growth.
