Early Holistic Scoring of Writing: A Theory, a History, a Reflection
Autor Richard Haswell, Norbert Ellioten Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2019 – vârsta ani
Early Holistic Scoring of Writingaddresses the history of holistic essay assessment in the United Kingdom and the United States from the mid-1930s to the mid-1980s—and newly conceptualizes holistic scoring by philosophically and reflectively reinterpreting the genre’s origin, development, and significance.
The book chronicles holistic scoring from its initial origin in the United Kingdom to the beginning of its heyday in the United States. Chapters cover little-known history, from the holistic scoring of school certificate examination essays written by Blitz evacuee children in Devon during WWII to teacher adaptations of holistic scoring in California schools during the 1970s. Chapters detail the complications, challenges, and successes of holistic scoring from British high-stakes admissions examinations to foundational pedagogical research by Bay Area Writing Project scholars. The book concludes with lessons learned, providing a guide for continued efforts to assess student writing through evidence models.
Exploring the possibility of actionable history,Early Holistic Scoring of Writingreconceptualizes writing assessment. Here is a new history that retells the origins of our present body of knowledge in writing studies.
