Excerpt from Improving Schools by Standardized Tests Among the more recent ideas there are some that seem pregnant with tremendous possibilities for the improve ment of educational procedure. The most far-reaching in its beneficial possibilities seems to me to be the idea Of measuring the results of teaching and the intelligence of school children by means Of standardized tests. Of large importance also are: The Socialized Recitation, Supervised Study, Teaching Children how to Study, The project-problem Method in Teaching, and the change Of emphasis from oral to silent reading. All these things are rich with promise of greater efficiency in education. But although all the above-mentioned ideas have proved successful, when carried out by trained men and women full Of enthusiasm and thoroughly under standing the psychological principles upon which the ideas were based, nevertheless, when the carrying-out of these same ideas has been attempted by persons lacking in sympathy and full understanding of the principles, aims, and methods involved, they have Often been far from successful. Superintendents and teachers who condemn these ideas, after proving to their own satisfaction that they are worth less, remind me Of the first farmer in the town Of my boy hood to purchase a mowing machine. For a great many years this man had mowed his many rough and rather rocky acres by hand with the help Of a large crew Of hired men. But one spring the mowing-machine agent appeared in our town and as a result, by the time hay was ready to be cut, the farmer found himself possessed Of a brand-new mowing machine, resplendent in green, yellow, and red. The next morning he started out to mow the back field. Truly his trials that day were many. And when the machine, unable to stand any more Of his inexpert han dling, broke down late in the afternoon, he had succeeded in getting over only about as much ground as one good man with scythe and snath could have mowed in the same length of time. And what an untidy-looking job it was! The next day the farmer started his Old crew to mowing by hand. N 0 more Of that mowing machine for him. He could do more and better work in a day alone than could a man with a pair Of horses and a mowing machine. The mowing machine was a failure. He knew because he had tried it. But did this farmer's experience with his new mowing machine prove the failure Of the machine or the failure Of the man? The mowing machine, we know, will do good and rapid work in astonishingly rough and rocky ground when guided by a practiced hand.

Excerpt from Educational Tests for Use in High Schools, Third Revision The actual, administration of standardized tests. T o carry out a successful and profitable testing program it is not only necessary that the tests employed be selected in View of the desired results and Of the criteria named above, but also that they be properly given and scored, and the results correctly interpreted. In connection with the giving and scoring Of tests, the one point needing emphasis above all others is that those giving them should follow, without variation, the directions accompanying the tests. Such directions can often be improved upon, but it is not the place of the tester to make changes, since this will pre vent the results Obtained from being strictly comparable with those secured by others who have employed the same test. The directions accompanying some tests are not complete. If these are to be used, those who are to give and score them should examine enough other similar tests or treatises on tests to find what is the accepted procedure for each Of the points in question and then follow this procedure.

Excerpt from Intelligence Tests and School Reorganization This book is in no sense an inventory of the important experiments now going on in the United States in connection with the use of intelligence and educational tests. Such an inventory would have required entirely too much space and would have involved an amount of repetition which could not have been other than tedious. Instead, experiments have been selected which are typical of the leading methods of readjustment now being attempted in different parts of the country. All of them illustrate important types of procedure, but involve varying degrees of generality. At one extreme is the Oakland plan, described by Dr. Dickson, which affects the entire school enrollment and the entire administrative system. At the other is the work of Dr. Fernald, which concerns itself primarily with individual cases of maladjustment and has to do with pedagogical method rather than school organization. Between these extremes is the Los Angeles work, described by Dr. Sutherland. The latter, although originally intended to meet the needs of individual misfits, has resulted in the working out of methods of individual instruction which appear to have applicability with children in general. The chapter by Dr. Franzen illustrates in a most interesting way how the results of intelligence and educational tests can be combined so as to serve as a better basis for rating the performance of pupils and the efficiency of schools. The chapter by Superintendent Tupper shows how much can be done, even in a small city and without elaborate reorganization, to improve the classification of children.
