Role of Assessment in Schools

The Role of Assessment in Schools looks at the conceptual aspects of tests and testing and also gives practical guidelines on how to use tests to their best effect. It provides a wide-ranging discussion of the development of tests, the types and scope of tests, their application and interpretation, and answers questions such as: Who wants testing? Is the test appropriate? Is the test biased? Are the results consistent?Sumner, Ray is the author of 'Role of Assessment in Schools ', published 1991 under ISBN 9780700512638 and ISBN 0700512632.
