| Abstract | Much of the language and many constructs used in testing and assessment must be redefined in order for testing instruments to be valid for use with children of African-American descent. These children are products of unique linguistic environments. Current educational assessment tools are insensitive to the cultural-linguistic diversity of the American population. Misconceptions about English as a language and about African-American language are at the foundation of many standardized testing instruments. There are urgent needs in this country for a systematic cultural-linguistic review of testing and assessment devices to be used with African-American children, to provide full and competent descriptions of African-American language, to instruct teachers about specific techniques for teaching African-American children, and to end the sale of kits and gimmicks developed for teaching speakers of "black language."
