Application of evidence-centered assessment design to the advanced placement redesign: A graphic restatement

Abstract

The foregoing articles constitute what I consider a comprehensive and clear description of the redesign process of a major assessment. The articles serve to illustrate the problems that will need to be addressed by large-scale assessments in the twenty-first century. Primary among them is how to organize the development of such assessments to meet a new set of demands without sacrificing quality, and even taking the opportunity to increase quality. Furthermore, these articles provide very concrete steps in solving those problems. My main goal in this article is to provide a unified graphic restatement of their well-explicated process. In addition I will raise a few questions that may be worth considering. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
