Teachers' Ratings of the Acceptability of Curriculum-Based Assessment Methods.

General- and special-education teachers evaluated the acceptability of two psychoeducational-assessment techniques: curriculum-based assessment (CBA) and norm-referenced tests (PNRT). Using the Assessment Rating Profile (ARP), the study compared teachers' ratings of a case study that presented data obtained using either CBA or PNRT. Teachers consistently rated CBA as a more acceptable method of assessment. Discusses implications for using CBA with teachers and school psychologists. (Author/JDM)
