Abstract: | In most subjects of the secondary curriculum there is a specialist vocabulary which is carefully taught as an integral part of learning the subject. However, there is another important set of words which is used during this instruction and which is assumed to be known as a result of general experience in previous years of schooling. This vocabulary test is designed to be sensitive to differences in level of skill of students with the words assumed known in a variety of subject areas. |
