Recenzii
A
well-timed
text,
given
the
legislated
requirement
of
performance
standards
in
our
K-12
educational
system,
as
well
as
the
continued
need
in
the
process
of
credentialing
professionals.
This
book
would
be
useful
to
individuals
retained
to
produce
or
coordinate
standard-setting
activites.
It is abundantly apparent that the authors know standard setting and themselves have implemented numerous standard-setting procedures using different methods for different types of assessment programs.... Although the book is very practical, someone who has a fair amount of knowledge in standard setting will not feel shortchanged. There is a richness in the discussions of the methods that engages the reader, such as the different modifications of a method and the situational challenge that warranted each modification. Also, when a specific implementation of a method is discussed in detail, the authors are very conscientious in discussing the impetus for the adaptations. The historical perspective presented for some of the methods is quite intriguing.
