Measure writing quality with a proven, standardized scale designed for young writers.
This book explains how researchers developed a reliable set of samples and scoring methods to compare English composition across schools and students. It ties the idea of standards to practical testing, showing how a scale can reflect true differences in ability rather than opinion.
The volume describes the process of creating a measurement tool, including how samples are selected, scored, and tabulated so teachers can judge classroom work consistently. It also discusses how multiple groups of judges are used, and how penalties for placing samples in wrong order help assess reliability.
Ideal for educators, researchers, and students studying assessment in literacy and curriculum development.
