Inhaltsangabe

High Stakes: Testing for Tracking, Promotion, and Graduation looks at how testing affects critical decisions for American students. As more and more tests are introduced into the country's schools, it becomes increasingly important to know how those tests are used - and misused - in assessing children's performance and achievements. The book examines common misuses of tests, their political and social context, what happens when test issues are taken to court, special student populations, social promotion, and more. High Stakes will be of interest to policy makers, education administrators, test designers, teachers, and parents.
