This volume questions the validity issues surrounding educational assessment programs and their appropriate uses in applied contexts. The authors break new ground in terms of validity theory and practice, offering recommendations, frameworks and assessment solutions that are broadly applicable in different regions. Chapters discuss the social consequences of validity oversights in high stakes testing, evaluation and accountability contexts. Questions addressed include: Do validity issues arise due to the technical complexities in assessment programs today, or a lack of awareness and inattention to technical limitations of assessment instruments by users? Is there a communication divide between educational policy-makers and measurement professionals that is obstructing more valid use of educational assessments and other forms of data? The prominent authors, representing voices of educational policy-makers, leaders, and recognized experts in educational measurement and evaluation from around the world, describe assessment programs in their regions, and appraise the conditions and factors that could enhance valid, equitable or fair assessment practices.

Dura. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : Nuevo. No Aplica (illustrateur). 0. Vality and Test Use examines the overlapping topics of vality, validation, and use of edcational test and test data in practice, policy, and evaluative contexts around the globe. While educational testing is ubiquitous today, the validity (or the meaningfulness and defensibility) of test scores and assessment reports is frequently compromised in test use settings by factors that are still largely undocumented or poorly understood. Some of these factors concern the test itself (e.g., poorly constructed items). Others lie completely outside a test, having to do with ways in which assessment instruments and data they yield are put to use in applied environments. This book address a range of validity issues typically encountered in high stakes testing contexts, searching for solutions to two questions: To what extent are popular uses of educational test and assessment information in international environments, valid? And: What can be done to optimize validity internationally, and with it, fair and equitable assessment and evaluation practices? Reflecting perspectives of a prominent cadre of measurement and framerworks for improving validty at the nexus of assessment design and use. 600 gr. Libro.
