Product Description:

Many states have turned to out-of-level testing as one option for including students with disabilities in statewide testing. With increased use of out-of-level testing, a corresponding increase in controversy over the practice has also evolved. To begin to resolve some of the contentious issues that surround out-of-level testing, NCEO submitted a Web-based survey as a follow-up study to a focus group study that garnered the perceptions and opinions from test and measurement experts about testing students with disabilities out of level in large-scale assessments. This report presents the findings of the study, focusing on issues surrounding norm-referenced and criterion-referenced tests, equating scores, and measurement precision and test score interpretation.
