Accommodations for Students Who Are Deaf or Hard of Hearing in Large-Scale, Standardized Assessments: Surveying the Landscape and Charting a New Direction

Students who are deaf or hard of hearing (SDHH) often use test accommodations when they participate in large-scale, standardized assessments. The purpose of this article is to present findings from the Third Annual Survey of Assessment and Accommodations for Students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. The "big five" accommodations were reported by at least two-thirds of the 389 participants: extended time, small group/individual administration, test directions interpreted, test items read aloud, and test items interpreted. In a regression analysis, language used in instruction showed the most significant effects on accommodations use. The article considers these findings in light of a more proactive role for the National Survey in providing evidence for the effectiveness of accommodations with SDHH.     

Can a Teacher‐Led State Assessment System Work?

Recent implementation of Nebraska's Standards-based Teacher-led Assessment and Reporting System (STARS) introduced a unique opportunity to examine the benefits and drawbacks of a teacher-led state assessment system. STARS is unique among state assessment systems in that statewide tests are replaced by locally developed assessments designed by teachers. Benefits of this system are found to be greater teacher use of results for instructional planning, greater diagnostic utility of the assessments, and gains in assessment literacy. Disadvantages include the time-consuming and stressful nature of creating localized assessments. Compatibility of STARS with the requirements of the No Child Left Behind Act are discussed.

剧烈运动对学生尿液有形成份的影响

用全自动尿沉渣分析仪(UF-100)及DiaSys R/S 2003尿液分析系统检测学生体育课前后尿液中的有形成份,男生运动1h后尿液中红细胞(RBC)、白细胞(WBC)、管型(CAST)、上皮细胞(EC)极显著增高,休息1h后RBC、WBC、CAST、EC增高仍有极显著意义.女生运动1h后仅CAST极显著增高,运动1h后及休息1h后RBC、WBC、EC无显著变化.33名学生运动1h后尿液中病理管型(P.CAST)和小圆上皮细胞(SRC)极显著增高,结晶(X'TAL)和蛋白质(PRO)显著增高,休息1h后P.CAST和PRO极显著增高,X'TAL显著增高,SRC增高无显著意义.     

对排球技术评定考试方法的研究
