[Assessment] Discussions posted FYIMarie Cora marie.cora at hotspurpartners.comSun Nov 27 15:46:26 EST 2005
Hello everyone, I hope this email finds you well. I have (finally!) finished putting together a number of discussion threads and writing accompanying summaries of discussions that were held here in this forum starting from fall of 2004 to present. Some of the discussions were Guest Discussions, others were conversations that carried on for a number of days (sometimes a couple of weeks) and provided rich ideas and in-depth thoughts and experiences in particular subject areas. You will be able to find all the Guest Discussions posted at the Guest Speaker Discussion Archive - but they will not be posted there for another week or so. The Guest Speaker Discussion Archive can be found at: http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions/list_guests.html. In the meantime, both the Guest Discussions and regular discussions are posted at the ALEWiki Assessment Area: http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Assessment_Information Click on Discussions and you will see the following listed there: Excerpts from High Stakes Testing and Standardized Assessment Measuring Literacy: Performance Levels for Adults, Interim Report Excerpts from discussion on Literacy vs. Reading, and TABE Excerpts from discussion on Literacy Needs and Accountability Versus Instruction The Adult Reading Components Study - ARCS Reading Diagnostic The (U.S.) National Reporting System (NRS) and Use of Test Scores Excerpts from discussion on Teacher Evaluation The REEP Writing Assessment Rubric Excerpts from Assessment in Family Literacy Test Construction Excerpts from Commercial Standardized Tests Excerpts from Teacher Qualifications in Assessment I hope that you find these resources handy and useful. If you use them in any way, I would greatly appreciate any feedback or information on how you used them and if you indeed found them useful. Thank you! marie cora Moderator, The National Institute for Literacy Assessment Discussion List, and Coordinator/Developer LINCS Assessment Special Collection at http://literacy.kent.edu/Midwest/assessment/ marie.cora at hotspurpartners.com
