Globally, there has been a significant influx in the use of and dependence on standardized tests to foster educational improvements. Standardized testing programs such as TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study), are designed to provide information about a country’s global standing in multiple academic areas, ranking individuals and/or groups relative to the performance of others. The high-stakes nature of standardized tests has increased public concern and interest in issues related to test fairness. Since standardized test performance has a profound influence on multiple aspects of educational systems, it is imperative to better understand and examine issues of fairness.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 18mmContributor: Keena Arbuthnot (Edited by)Author: Keena ArbuthnotGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Children's Learning & EducationBook Series: Advances in Education in Diverse Communities: Research, Policy and PraxisItem Weight: 438gRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
