Abstract | This set of materials represents the first three workshops in a series of five designed to assist school districts and educators to develop their own curriculum-referenced tests. The series has been assembled to provide school districts with a relatively inexpensive test development method. The series is designed to reduce costs by pooling resources in terms of training and instrument development. Although many of the concepts presented can be used for informal, daily classroom assessment, the main focus is the development of more formal assessment systems (unit, year, or course-end tests) and/or diagnostic systems. The three workshops include an introductory session, a session on developing test specifications, and a item pool development session. The two workshops not outlined cover pilot testing and finalizing assessment materials. The entire series is designed to occur over a period of 1 year or more. Each workshop presents information and practice on one step of the test development process. Participants then finish that step before they proceed to the next workshop. At the end of the series, participants have one or more instruments pilot-tested and ready to use. Although many of the instruments are multiple-choice, other formats are encouraged as appropriate. Presenters' outlines, participant handouts, and copies of transparencies are provided for each of the three workshops. Samples of letters to participants are appended. (TJH) |
