Sinossi

Standardized Testing offers a comprehensive exploration of standardized assessments in education, examining their historical context, purpose, and impact. This academic analysis investigates whether these tests truly measure student learning or perpetuate social inequality. The book traces the evolution of standardized testing from early 20th-century intelligence measures to today's high-stakes evaluations, revealing how social, political, and economic forces have shaped their use.

 
Did you know standardized tests significantly influence not only students, but also teachers, schools, and educational policy? The book critically analyzes the claims of objectivity, accountability, and fairness often associated with standardized tests, scrutinizing their validity, reliability, and potential biases. It delves into the effects of test preparation on curriculum, the pressure on students, and potential demographic biases, advocating for a balanced assessment approach.

 
Structured around key themes such as test validity and the history of testing, the book progresses through different types of standardized tests and analyzes their impact on students and schools, culminating in a discussion of alternative assessment methods and implications for educational policy.

Jesus Germs and the Great...

Faith Christie RN

Is it possible to be a Christian and a nurse at the same time? 
When I first started out in my calling as a nurse, I thought the answer to that question was an easy "yes," but then as I walked the long halls of the hospital, I started to have questions:Is it ever okay to pray for a patient?Why do I feel so awkward asking for a chaplain?When death is real, does heaven have a place in the hospital? 
I tried to find resources written by other Christian medical professionals to help me, but all I ever heard were statements on ethics and the legal repercussions of bringing "coercive" faith to the bedside. 
Then I faced death myself in an ICU bed and learned that a lot of my fears were irrelevant in the Presence of the living God. And with that realization, I began to learn how God could make me a Christian and a nurse at the same time. 
Facing death in an ICU bed is a high-risk education not everyone can afford, so I've collected the lessons learned during my journey in this book. These spiritual case studies can be used to help nurses bring their faith to work. 
Discussion Questions included for small group study or personal growth.
