Borich, serves as an up-to-date, practical, reader-friendly resource that will help readers navigate today's seemingly ever-changing and complex world of educational testing, assessment, and measurement.

New to Edition

New Informs readers of the latest testing and assessment changes and challenges, including legislative initiatives and requirements that drive testing policy and practice
New Incorporates recent and existing state and national educational reforms to inform readers about the way they have influenced testing practice. The authors describe how the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) have evolved since the last edition. They integrate the state-sponsored CCSS with the national Race to the Top (RTT) voluntary initiative and the RTT sponsored multi-state assessment consortia (i.e., the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium and the Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC).
New Learning Outcomes were added to the beginning of chapters to provide a preview of the primary topics covered in each chapter
