Abstract | What is assessment literacy? It is 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: (1) tests that are worth the valuable time they take to administer; (2) tests that accurately measure what students have learned; (3) tests that fairly reflect teacher and school effectiveness; and (4) 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. (As Provided). |
