Some Comments on the Ad Hoc Committee's Critique of the Massachusetts Teacher Tests.

Wainer, Howard

Education Policy Analysis Archives, v7 n5 1999

The critique of the Massachusetts Teacher Tests by W. Haney and others points out some flaws in the tests but ignores the fact that the tests provide some useful information to guide teacher selection decisions. Calls for additional study of these teacher evaluation instruments. (SLD)
