I would like to point out a couple of resources where you can find some further info on tests (someone inquired about the CASAS), and where you can see some definitions of assessment terms as well. Sorry! Don't have a definition for Literacy! Perhaps that's for us to work on together? You can go to the LINCS Special Collection in Assessment at http://literacy.kent.edu/Midwest/assessment/ At the Collection, you can find a section on Published Tests that will take you to the homepages of some of the commonly used assessments. You can also find the Assessment Glossary, and on-line resources for further reading. You can also go to the Adult Literacy Education Wiki (ALEWiki) at http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Main_Page and click on Assessment Information (number 3.7). At the ALE Assessment Wiki you can also find info on commercially available tests, a Glossary, on-line links for assessment, and past discussion excerpts from this List. At the ALE Wiki, YOU can contribute to the information there - a wiki is an interactive site where you can add information as well as go get it. This will whet (wet?) your whistle - taken from the ALE Assessment wiki: http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Grade_Level_Equivalent http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Scale_scores If you have further questions, ask away! Thanks! marie cora Moderator, NIFL Assessment Discussion List, and Coordinator/Developer LINCS Assessment Special Collection at http://literacy.kent.edu/Midwest/assessment/ marie.cora@hotspurpartners.com
