Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com "First published in 1992 and now released as the millennium edition, this book is 'for school administrators and teachers who want fast, accurate, and easy-to-use answers' to curriculum questions. It would also be an excellent text for teacher education students just beginning to study curriculum." Curriculum and instruction | Customer Rating: | This is a very good book for administrators but more useful to the classroom teacher. It was required reading for one of my administration classes. However, I think this book should have been required during my methods courses. It speaks of aligning curriculum and classroom instruction. The debate is whether to frontload (develop the curriculum and then choose the standardized test) or backload (develop the curriculum after choosing the test). The author talked about the tests measuring the children's life experiences and not totally testing subject mattter, which is why some standardized tests are bias. The role of the administrator in testing, as an instructional leader and not just a manager of people, was also discussed. This book is a must have for anyone who administers any type of test to other people. |
