Synopsis
A comprehensive toolkit for assessing first-year algebra skills. This edition explains how the First Year Algebra Scales were developed to measure students’ ability to solve typical algebra problems using standard symbols and methods.
The book outlines two parallel sets of scales, Series A and Series B, covering addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, equation and formula, graphs, and word problems. It explains how the scales were built from large samples across many high schools to ensure broad applicability and meaningful comparisons. Clear guidance is provided on choosing the right series and on using the scales for both diagnostic and attainment purposes.
What you’ll experience
- A practical approach to testing algebra progress over three, six, and nine months
- How to administer and score tests consistently in real classrooms
- A framework for interpreting results with median scores and percentile-based deviations
- Detailed notes on selecting scales and interpreting results for different teaching goals
Key features
- Two series: Series A (shorter) and Series B (longer), with a wide range of difficulty
- Explicit instructions for test administration, timing, and scoring
- Examples of how to use the data to identify student difficulties and track growth
- Supplemental material showing how class results can be summarized and compared
Ideal for teachers and school programs aiming to measure and improve first-year algebra learning, from routine progress checks to diagnostic assessments.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Contributions to this study have come from so many sources that it is impossible for me to adequately acknowledge all of them here. Hundreds of teachers, principals, and superintendents have willingly cooperated in securing the sixteen thousand papers upon which the results of this study are based. To them I am also indebted for many valuable suggestions and criticisms. More particularly, however, I desire here to express toP rofessor George D. Strayer and toP rofessor Edward L. Thorndike my very grateful appreciation of their continued assistance and sympathetic supervision at each stage of this study. H. G. H.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of scales developed by the author for measuring achievement in first-year algebra. The need for such scales had been felt for some time in educational circles, and the author's careful work in this area has produced a valuable tool for educators. The scales are based on the number of times an exercise or problem is solved correctly, and are designed to measure the typical algebra problems through the use of simple algebraic symbols and devices. The author's research has led to the derivation of scales for addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, equations and formulas, problems, and graphs, each of which includes only those exercises or problems that are quite universally taught in a course in first-year algebra. Each scale begins with very easy exercises, which can readily be solved by nearly all students, but become increasingly more difficult so that the last ones in each series can be solved by only a relatively small number of the students who try them. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330134160_0
