The Adoption and Management of Testing Programs in Connecticut Schools. Second Report. A Sampling Study.
Smith, Alexander F.
The report of a survey of testing practices in the school systems of the state of Connecticut is presented. Completed at the end of the 1973-74 school year, the survey constituted the second phase of a planned series of inquiries into evaluation programs and procedures at the local level. The general purpose of the investigations is to provide information for the State Department of Education and for local school systems which would be useful in improving local evaluation programs, procedures, and competencies. Information is gathered about planning and administration of testing programs, the grade levels in which tests are given, the specific tests or batteries used, the changes anticipated for next year, sources of information used in the past, suggestions from school personnel for new sources of information and for future workshops or conferences, unusual practices in some school systems, and the status of the development and use of behavioral objectives, criterion referenced tests, and attempts to measure non-cognitive outcomes of education.
