Description

Finally-a school improvement plan that raises standardized test scores and improves your students' performance!

Standardized tests are so widely used in public schools, they seem to have been around forever. On the contrary, standardized testing as we know it today is a relatively recent phenomenon, and in today's classrooms and schools the stakes have never been higher. For students, test results may determine whether they are promoted from one grade to another or if they receive their high school diplomas. For teachers, the pressures are equally great. Student outcomes on standardized tests are often directly linked to annual evaluations, pay raises, and even future employment. And for school administrators, these tests can determine the reputation of a school and be the basis for public rewards or demoralizing sanctions.

Raising Test Scores for All Students marries knowledge about testing and test preparation with school improvement, providing a comprehensive guide for administrators looking for a systemic approach to the challenge of standardized testing. Eugene Kennedy includes a concise overview of the history and research on testing, case studies, flow charts and forms, as well as a four-step approach to improving performance:

  • Step 1: Adopting a Systemic Approach to Improvement and Change
  • Step 2: Aligning the Educational Process with the Desired Outcome
  • Step 3: Aligning the Education Process with Inputs
  • Step 4: Creating Positive Change

. . . Plus strategies and techniques for motivating all your students. This innovative approach is an invaluable tool for any educator!
