Age of Reform (1 Jan 1792 Jahr – 1 Jan 1900 Jahr)
Beschreibung:
- The first documented formal use of evaluation took place in 1792 when William
Farish utilized the quantitative mark to assess students’ performance (Hoskins, 1968)
- During this period in Great Britain, education was reformed through evaluation.
For example, the Powis Commission recommended that students’ performance on
reading, spelling, writing, and arithmetic would determine teachers’ salaries. It was not
uncommon to have annual evaluations on pupil attainments (Madaus & Kellaghan,
1982)
-From 1887 to 1898, an educational reformer named Joseph Rice conducted a
similar assessment by carrying out a comparative study on spelling instruction across a number of school districts. He was concerned about methods of teaching spelling,
because U.S. students were not learning to spell. Rice was able to determine that there
was no relationship between time devoted to spelling and competence.
