Description

This book offers practical guidelines that faculty can use to improve their skills in the development, administration, and grading of classroom tests. It gives specific how-to advice on every stage of the testing process, from planning the test and classifying objectives to be measured to principles of grading that result in fair grades based on relevant data. It shows how faculty can write tests that are more fair and more valid, and that do a better job of measuring what their students learn--thereby improving faculty members' abilities in the assessment of learning outcomes. - from Amzon
