The Integration of Testing with Teaching: Applications of Cognitive Psychology in Instruction.
Frederiksen, Norman
American Journal of Education, v102 n4 p527-64 Aug 1994
Reforms in American schools should concentrate on the development of higher-order skills and on assessments that support them. Reform should move beyond conventional tests that are of little use to students. Applications of cognitive psychology in the real world, including cognitive apprenticeships and interactive learning environments, are described. (SLD)
