Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores research conducted in the Berkeley public school system that examines the impact of mental testing on school administration. The author, a school director, begins by establishing the trend of increasing school costs due to the increasing complexity of the school system. The need for efficient school organization is emphasized as a solution to this problem. The author then transitions into sharing the different mental testing programs implemented in Berkeley schools and highlights the effectiveness of mental testing as a strategy for improving classroom instruction. Notably, the author highlights the importance of mental testing as a tool for tailoring education to fit the needs of individual children. Grounded in the concept of mental endowment as a key factor in academic performance, the text argues that mental testing should be an integral part of school administration. The book further details a two-part study conducted to determine the effectiveness of mental testing in school administration. The first part examines the distribution of chronological and mental ages in kindergarten and first-grade students. It finds a wide range of abilities within these grades, supporting the case for individualized education. The second part analyzes the reliability of mental testing by comparing the results of two tests administered to the same children at different times. The results demonstrate a high level of consistency, indicating the reliability of mental testing as a tool for predicting school success. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the role of mental testing in school administration and offers valuable insights for educators seeking to optimize the learning experience for each student.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, a comprehensive study on the subject of educational research, reviews the work of the Oakland Department of Research and its contribution to the field of educational psychology. The author explores the use of standardized psychological and achievement tests in understanding individual differences among children, arguing for their use as guidance tools to assist teachers and administrators in tailoring education to each child's needs. Through a series of comparative studies of Oakland's schools, the author explores the impact of socio-economic and administrative factors upon student outcomes, such as grade repetition and acceleration. The author argues for the use of mental testing and standard achievement tests to segregate students into special classes based on their abilities. Special attention is given to the issue of retardation in early grades, with the author arguing that a significant number of children are held back due to factors other than intellectual ability, calling into question the quality and appropriateness of early childhood education in the Oakland public schools. Overall, this book provides a valuable historical account of the state of educational research in the early 20th century, highlighting the tensions between standardized testing and individualized education, and offering insights into the ongoing debate on the purpose and methods of public education in a democratic society.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of extensive research on the use of intelligence and achievement tests in school settings, specifically in Oakland, California between 1917 and 1918. The author's findings on the distribution of test scores within different grade levels reveal an alarming number of students falling short of the expected standard. The book asserts that this information should be used to challenge the existing educational practices and suggests that it may be more beneficial for schools to focus on helping students achieve their full potential within their abilities rather than expecting them all to meet the same rigid standards.
