Monitoring the Standards of Education: Papers in Honor of John P. Keeves

This work aims to add clarity and fuel to the ongoing debate about the standards of school achievement by answering such questions as: why should standards of education be monitored?; which are the major steps to be undertaken in setting and monitoring cognitive and affective achievement standards?; which indicators can be used?; and how are they measured? The book is intended for researchers in educational measurement, curriculum and administration; ministries of education, examining boards and state departments of education.
