Written for professional educators, agency professionals, and
pre-service teachers, Informed Teaching: Using Data to Improve
Educational Performance helps readers understand how validity and
assessment technical characteristics are involved in making
accurate and appropriate inferences from scores, judgements,
ratings, and other checks of student performance. Keeping in mind
the overarching educational goal of supporting learning objectives
and goals, the book uses a validity framework to address the
complexity of assessment, including testing, measuring, evaluating,
and both formative and summative predicting. Specific examples
include assessment of phonological and morphological awareness, a
developmental spelling inventory, a narrative writing rubric, an
oral reading fluency sample, and a rubric for media-enhanced
science education. Additional chapters are devoted to literacy
promotion, particularly science literacy, and the value and utility
of the MESPR. Informed Teaching is the rare textbook that actually
allows readers to interact with samples and examples of assessments
in order to practice understanding and interpreting validity types
in a variety of contexts. The book is well-suited to graduate level
courses in assessment and evaluation, and to in-service
professional development.
