What is assessment literacy? It's a handful of fundamental
understandings about the testing concepts and procedures that
influence educational decisions. And it just might be the most
cost-effective means of real school improvement. With
characteristic humor and aplomb, assessment expert W. James Popham
strips away the psychometrician-speak and condenses the
complexities of educational testing to six practical and
action-oriented understandings about validity, reliability,
fairness, score reporting, formative assessment, and affective
assessment. This book is for busy educators at the classroom and
leadership levels who want: Tests that are worth the valuable time
they take to administer. Tests that accurately measure what student
have learned. Tests that fairly reflect teacher and school
effectiveness. Tests that provide the instructionally useful data
that will help students learn faster and better. Assessment
Literacy for Educators in a Hurry is the fastest route to acquiring
the measurement moxie necessary to understand and advocate for
better assessment practices and build a case for stopping
ineffective and harmful ones. In just a few hours' time, you can
pick up the knowledge you need to do a whole lot of good-for your
students, yourself, and our schools.
