As one in a series of test item collections developed by the Assessment and Evaluation Unit of the Directorate of Studies, items of value from past tests are made available to teachers for the construction of unit tests, term examinations or as a basis for class discussion. Each collection is reviewed for content validity and reliability. The test items meet syllabus content and aims best suited to multiple choice questions, but teachers are meant to base the use of the test items on student ability and the particular program objectives. In three sections test items are concerned with the structure and properties of fibers, yarns and fabrics, textile design and construction, and the history and cultural significance of textile arts. Master keys and guidelines for constructing a test are provided. Many items are illustrated by diagrams and drawings. (CM)
