Meer oor hierdie e-boek

Testing Policy Critique offers a critical examination of national testing policies and their effects on educational outcomes. It explores whether standardized tests genuinely improve education or exacerbate inequalities, driven by the accountability movement. The book delves into the validity of standardized tests, the ""teach to the test"" phenomenon impacting curriculum, and the equity implications for marginalized students. It highlights that despite aiming to promote educational excellence, current testing policies often perpetuate systemic inequalities and narrow the curriculum.

The book progresses through three phases: establishing the theoretical foundations, examining the practical effects on instruction and funding through case studies, and analyzing long-term consequences on college admissions and social mobility. Empirical evidence supports the arguments presented, with statistical analyses and qualitative studies.

The book connects to sociology, economics, and political science to underscore the multifaceted nature and broad societal implications of testing.
