Description

For this final assignment:

  • Synthesize all of the data and information you gathered on your selected test throughout the course and identify highlights, both positive and negative, both advantages and disadvantages, according to all nine elements of the Code.
  • Evaluate your selected test based on these data and draw a conclusion about whether or not it is a test that you would select, recommend, or even defend, if necessary in practice.
    • Identify the strengths or weaknesses for each element, and determine if the information about that element supports (or opposes) the use of your selected test in the field and population to be served.
    • Incorporate recommendations about ways to improve the selected test.
    • Review all of your evaluations for each element and recommended improvements to the test, and write an overall evaluation and determination about the use of your selected test. Would you recommend this test to a school district or business that you are employed as a consultant? Would you be able to defend the use of this test in a court proceeding?

Organize your paper using the following headings:

  1. Title page (required) (one page).
  2. Abstract (required) (one page).
  3. The Code of Fair Testing Practices in Education (a minimum of four pages). (For each element, identify strengths and weaknesses, evaluate the selected test for the element, and make recommendations, if any for improvement, citing appropriate standards of practice.)
    • Element 1. Purpose: Define the purpose for testing, the content, and skills tested
    • Element 2. Appropriateness: Evaluate appropriateness of test content, skills tested, and content covered
    • Element 3. Materials: Evaluate materials for which clear, accurate, and complete information is provided
    • Element 4. Training: Test users have appropriate knowledge, skills, and training
    • Element 5. Technical Quality:
      • Synthesis of evidence of reliability
      • Synthesis of evidence of validity
    • Element 6. Test Items and Format: Evaluate test items, test format, directions, manuals and scores
    • Element 7. Test Procedures and Materials: Evaluate test procedures and materials to ensure that potentially offensive content or language is avoided
    • Element 8. Modifications and Accommodations: Evaluate if tests provide appropriately modified forms or procedures for test takers with disabilities
    • Element 9. Group Differences: Evaluate evidence on performance of test takers of diverse subgroups.
  4. Summary (two pages).
  5. Overall recommendation to use the selected test in the field and with populations to be served.
    • If recommending the use of the selected test, identify the greatest strengths you discovered and determined in its use. Additionally, identify any limitations or concerns that may still exist with its use regardless of the recommendation. Are there still concerns for the test in certain situations?
    • If not recommending the use of the selected test, identify the greatest weaknesses you discovered and determined in its use. Additionally, identify any strengths that may still exist with its use regardless of the opposition. Are there still uses for the test within set parameters?
  6. References (required, use current APA format and style).
