Schooling and Society: The Ordering and Recording of Knowledge in the Western Middle Ages (Groningen Studies in Cultural Change

The Tale of Two Interpretations

This book examines technology and assessment from both educational and psychometric perspectives, exploring methodologies and applications in both fields. It discusses the impact of instructional technology and testing on student and school performance, and proposes an organizational structure to align technology and assessment practices.

Together, the words technology and assess-ment have different meaning for different people. Those who work with educational or instructional technology take these words to mean assessing the impacts of technology on teaching and learning. Test developers and psychometricians, however, consider ways in which computer-based technologies can be used to enhance current approaches to student assessment. This book examines technology and assessment from both perspectives by examining past, current and promising methodol-ogies and applications in both fields. The influences instructional uses of technology and the increasing reliance on testing to gauge student and school performance have on one another are also explored. The book concludes by describing an organizational structure that could bring instructional applications of technology and assessment practices into closer alignment.
