Pennsylvania School District Testing Programs.
Blust, Ross S.; Kohr, Richard L.
A survey to gather information concerning school district testing programs in Pennsylvania is reviewed. The information concerns the commercially produced norm referenced and criterion referenced achievement tests, as well as locally produced achievement tests used in the state's school districts. The Pennsylvania Division of Educational Testing and Evaluation records of demographic data were merged with the results of the survey administered to all state school districts. The results of the data analysis are reported in several ways, including a breakdown by socioeconomic status, population density, and school district enrollment. The analysis indicates limited use of criterion referenced tests in Pennsylvania schools. A summary of information on district developed tests is also included. The testing survey and directions for completion are reproduced in their entirety. (DWH)
