Frameworks of State: Assessment Policy in Historical Perspective.
Mazzeo, Christopher
Teachers College Record, v103 n3 p367-97 Jun 2001
Examines the early history of state student assessment, describing how an accountability model for state testing failed between 1865-1965 and stressing the role of institutionalized clusters of normative and causal ideas in educational policy making. These policy frameworks define core principles that nimate state action, legitimate aims served by intervention, and ways that these ends will be achieved. (SM)
