The Effect of Test Selection on Title I Project Impact.

Jaeger, Richard M.

Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, v1 n2 p33-40 Mar-Apr 1979

A liberal interpretation of Section 151 of Public Law 93-380, to implement effective local evaluation of Title I programs, is supported. Weaknesses are cited: (1) nationwide impact data, (2) unsound aggregation of Title I achievement gains, and (3) lack of consideration of alternative evaluation methods. (MH)
