Alternative Perspectives in Assessing Children's Language

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Holland, Kathleen / Bloome, David / Solsken, Judith, PUBLISHER: Praeger, One of the realities of educational practice in the late 20th century is the increasing role of assessment, especially of children's oral and written language. While there are many issues and problems surrounding this assessment, one problem that needs to be addressed is the lack of alternative ways of assessing children's language and literacy for K-12 practitioners. There are many ways to approach the assessment of language and literacy. How one approaches the assessment of oral and written language depends, in large part, on how language is defined and on what purposes language is viewed as serving. In this book, alternative ways of assessing language are based on three different perspectives defining language and its uses: anthropological, socio-psycholinguistic, and literary. Although applying these perspectives to language is not new, only recently have educators and others taken seriously the need for assessment of language to be consistent with the perspectives of language underlying classroom instruction. Simply put, as language education (including reading, writing, and oral language) becomes increasingly based upon anthropological, socio-psycholinguistic, and literary principles, the assessment of language and literacy must also be based upon such principles. This book discusses and illustrates how to reconceptualize assessment in terms of the alternative perspectives outlined here.

Reading in the Classroom provides detailed discussions of the most current and representative classroom reading observation systems used throughout the United States. This book will aid researchers, policy makers, and curriculum developers in evaluating our current educational system with respect to literacy instruction.

These tools were developed to study a variety of research questions, such as the effectiveness of statewide reading initiatives, the increased incidence of culturally diverse students with learning disabilities, effective teaching strategies for English language learners, methods to record the writing performance of at-risk students, ethnographic classroom observations, and ecobehavioral assessment and analysis strategies.
