Measurement and Research in the Accountability EraAbstract
This chapter comes from an invited keynote address to an international conference organised by Educational Testing Services, USA. It builds on the author’s research over a 10-year period on national curriculum assessment and the impact of a “punitive” accountability testing régime on teachers’ practice and view of their professionalism. The analysis, whilst developed in an English context, has significance for the US scene.Citation
