Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Measurements The sole purpose of standardized measurements is to refine these judgments, to make them more accurate and objective, to express them in terms of known units of a definable character, so that we may be able to say, for example, that a pupil can read three words per second of a certain passage and to report so and so much of it, that he knows the English meaning of 2000 Latin words and can translate without error sentences of specified difficulty. If there are any products or by-products of education which are too subtle to be distinguished or judged as existing in greater or less amounts, or as having higher or lower quality, we may be suspicious of their actual existence. Any quality or ability of human nature that is detectable is also measurable. It remains only to discover more and more accurate means of measurement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fifteenth Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, Vol. 1: Standards and Tests for the Measurement of the Efficiency of Schools and School Systems In the pages which follow, the Committee on Standards and Tests Of the National Council of Education presents a series of reports pre pared by its own members and by others who have, upon invitation of the committee, been willing to contribute results Of their study or investigation. The committee feels that these reports furnish most satisfactory evidence Of the progress which has been made in the field of educational measurement during the past few years. The papers of the several contributors may, in general, be classified as contributing (i) to the derivation of scales or units of measurement, and (2) to the application of such units or scales of measurement as have been derived in the field Of educational administration or supervision. In printing, the papers have been grouped as indicated above. It seems unnecessary with this report in hand to argue in favor of the use of the more precise methods of measurement which have recently been developed. Those interested in the improvement of our schools have always attempted by some method or other to estimate the effi ciency of individual schools or school systems. Often this measurement has been based upon an Opinion not acceptable to another student or investigator, and not frequently upon attempts to measure which have been extremely crude. The examination system as we have commonly had it, not only has been responsible for judgments with respect to the efficiency of schools, or Of school systems, but has also determined in very considerable measure in most school systems the progress of children. In the studies which are reported here, more precise measures give to the student of education a better basis in knowledge of conditions upon which to base his criticism or to develop his improved method Of instruction or administration. The measurement Of results of any sort, whether of the achievements in School subjects, of the cost of any unit or function, or of the rate of progress, and the like, furnishes primarily a knowledge of the situation which makes clear the problems involved, and which may suggest a method of experiment that looks toward the improvement desired.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Measuring Textbooks The skilled workman chooses his tools with discrimination. In making his choice, he has in mind three things: the results to be accomplished through the use of the tool, the characteristics of the material on which the tool is to be used, and his own peculiar requirements as the user of the tool. And he selects the tool that best combines the qualities demanded by these three considerations. So the carpenter selects his saw, the wood-chopper his ax, the blacksmith his hammer, even the ditch-digger his shovel and the bootblack his brush. Textbooks are tools. To be serviceable, they must be adapted, like other tools, to the three considerations: the end to be accomplished by their use, the material in connection with which they arc to be used, and the needs of the user. These three considerations are represented respectively by the objectives sought in the given subject, the pupils who are to be made to realize or to embody these objectives, and the teacher and her pupils who are to use the given text as a means of attaining the desired objectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods in Education Usage puts a preface in every text-book and so you find one here. But the measure of value is in the body of the'text, not in the preface. The gateway is not a true criterion of the fruits in the field. The books on school methods can be easily classified. Some rest upon the abstract theories of psychology, exalting rigid formality; some present mere outlines in logical forms, leaving the student to find and adapt the subject-matter; others elabo rate particular methods suited to the respective subjects of instruction. All these are good, but still the young student wavers beneath the uncertainty of knowing exactly what to do. Hence, this book is prepared to satisfy the actual needs of teachers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gary Public Schools: Measurement of Classroom Products In the last few years both laymen and professional educators have engaged in a lively controversy as to the merits and defects, advantages and disadvantages of what has come to be called the Gary idea or the Gary plan. The rapidly increasing literature bearing on the subject is, however, deficient in details and too often partisan in tone. The present study was undertaken by the General Education Board at the request of the Gary school authorities for the purpose of presenting an accurate and comprehensive account of the Gary schools in their significant aspects. In the several volumes in which the main features of the Gary schools are separately considered, the reader will observe that, after presenting facts, each of the authors discusses or in technical phrase attempts to evaluate the Gary plan from the angle of his particular interest Facts were gathered in a patient, painstaking, and objective fashion; and those who want facts, and facts only, will, it is believed, find them in the descriptive and statistical portions of the respective studies.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scales for the Measurement of English Compositions When educational research in a city school system is carried on jointly by a department of education in a university and the school authorities of that city, it combines two purposes. The department of education engages in it to promote the scientific study of educational problems and to assist in their solution. Its purpose is larger than that of the school system in which the work is done. The city school system engages in such work chiefly to improve educational conditions and practices in that city. Such educational research as is undertaken, therefore, should be of mutual advantage and should combine both purposes. The method of carrying on such research should be cooperative. There should be combined and applied to the solution of such educational problems as are studied, the practical knowledge which teachers, principals and other school workers possess, and the educational insight and exact methods of investigation which the department of education has at its command. To be of the greatest value to the school system such work should be participated in by as large a number of teachers and school officers as can advantageously be used: and the work should never be allowed to become a burden to them. On the other hand, the work should be in charge of a responsible head connected with the department of education who should apply the available resources of the department to the study of problems in the school system. Properly qualified graduate students can participate with advantage and profit to the school system and to themselves. In the prosecution of their research, much purely clerical work is inevitable. This should not be done by the teachers or those in the department of education, but by competent clerks. This study was started and has been carried on in accordance with the foregoing principles.

The coefficient of reliability is sim ply the coefficient of correlation between two sets of scores secured from two applications of the same test or from duplicate forms of it. These two applications should be separated by a relatively short time interval. For most of our educational tests the coefficient of reliability, when based upon the scores made by pupils belonging to the same school grade, ranges from 65 to 90. For a few tests coefficients of reliability 95 or higher have been reported. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary School Standards: Instruction Course of Study; Supervision; Applied to New York City The problems dealt with by Professor McMurry in this book cover one of the most important fields included in the New York City School Inquiry. His task was to arrive at a just estimate of the quality of the teaching, the course of study, and the supervision by the principals in the elementary schools. This task naturally led him to formulate standards of value, whereby the work of the elementary schools could be appraised. Rejecting the usual examinations as inadequate and unsatisfactory for his purpose, Professor McMurry has judged the quality of the teaching, course of study, and supervision by the degree to which all three are controlled by purposes of recognized value in daily living. His formulation of the standards on which his judgments are based and his detailed descriptions of the application of those standards to the actual work of the schools will be useful, we believe, to earnest teachers everywhere. Professor McMurry did not attempt to make these standards all-embracing, but they are so fundamental to satisfactory plans and procedure in elementary school work that, whatever limitations as to scope and variety they may possess, all good elementary schools must conform to them. Further, they point the way to progressive improvement where improvement is desirable. This book is, accordingly, not merely a report made by one of my associates in the New York City School Inquiry; it is a contribution to the professional resources of teachers and supervising officers wherever their lot may be cast.
