The Conceptual Framework for the Development of a Mathematics Performance Assessment Instrument.
Lane, Suzanne
Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, v12 n2 p16-23 Sum 1993
A conceptual framework is presented for the development of the Quantitative Understanding: Amplifying Student Achievement and Reasoning (QUASAR) Cognitive Assessment Instrument (QCAI) that focuses on the ability of middle-school students to problem solve, reason, and communicate mathematically. The instrument will provide programatic rather than student-level information. (SLD)
