Opis

Written for assessment scholars and students both in mathematics education and across educational contexts, this book presents innovative research and perspectives on quantitative measures, including their associated purpose statements and validity arguments.

Recenzje

"The authors of these ten chapters, all experts in mathematics education research, provide a broad yet unified message: increased validity and credibility are achievable via more “robust and rigorous measures in mathematics education.” Each chapter includes extensive references. This book’s audience includes mathematics education researchers, assessment specialists, and interested mathematics education students."
