Issues and Methodologies in Large-scale Assessment

This is the second volume in their annual monograph series that addresses the scientific and methodological issues related to the design and implementation of large-scale group assessments. The goal of the series is to contribute to the science of large-scale assessments by providing a dedicated forum through which scientific and methodological issues related to the design and implementation of large- scale assessments can be examined. Each paper in the monograph series receives careful evaluation by the IERI Executive Committee, including a blind peer review by experts from ETS and the IEA as well as by external expert reviewers from other international organizations. The papers chosen were consistent with the IERI mission and goals.
