The Ecology of Assessment: Evaluation in Educational Settings.
Wilson, Robert J.; Rees, Ruth
Canadian Journal of Education, v15 n3 p215-28 Sum 1990

A second proposed model depicts the provincial educational setting. The development of a provincial item bank illustrates the application of the models. (TJH)
