Using HAC-Guided Responsive Journal Writing to Assess Problem Solving Abilities: Preliminary Correlations.
Levy, Jonathan
Research in the Teaching of English, v29 n3 p355-59 Oct 1995
Explains that despite recent objections to standardized testing, a repeated call for national standards continues, which, in turn, has given rise to the (apparently fictional) Humane Assessment Coalition (HAC). Uses subtle satire to outline the HAC's theoretical posture and presents a hands-on case study that demonstrates the organization's methodology and substantiates its theories. (TB)
