EDUC 19 Educational Testing

Increasingly, standardized tests define the landscape of American education. We use test scores to evaluate students, teachers, schools, states, and nations. But what do these test scores really mean? In this course, students examine the fundamentals of test development, and discuss what we can and cannot infer from test scores. Topics include using tests to assess learning, to promote learning, and to identify factors that predict different learning outcomes for different students. Open to all.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
