Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Achievement tests play an important role in modern societies. They are used to evaluate schools, to assign students to tracks within schools, and to identify weaknesses in student knowledge. The GED is an achievement test used to grant the status of high school graduate to anyone who passes it. GED recipients currently account for 12 percent of all high school credentials issued each year in the United States. But do achievement tests predict success in life The Myth of Achievement Tests shows that achievement tests like the GED fail to measure important life skills. James J. Heckman, John Eric Humphries, Tim Kautz, and a group of scholars offer an in-depth exploration of how the GED came to be used throughout the United States and why our reliance on it is dangerous. Drawing on decades of research, the authors show that, while GED recipients score as well on achievement tests as high school graduates who do not enroll in college, high school graduates vastly outperform GED recipients in terms of their earnings, employment opportunities, educational attainment, and health. The authors show that the differences in success between GED recipients and high school graduates are driven by character skills. Achievement tests like the GED do not adequately capture character skills like conscientiousness, perseverance, sociability, and curiosity. These skills are important in predicting a variety of life outcomes. They can be measured, and they can be taught. Using the GED as a case study, the authors explore what achievement tests miss and show the dangers of an educational system based on them. They call for a return to an emphasis on character in our schools, our systems of accountability, and our national dialogue.

LA FOTO CORRISPONDE AL LIBRO IN VENDITA. Ai test di apprendimento à stato assegnato un ruolo molto importante nella società contemporanea, ma sono davvero efficaci per valutare le qualità di uno studente e capire se avrà successo nella vita? In queste pagine il premio Nobel per L'economia James J. Heckman, noto per i suoi studi sul capitale umano, offre una lucida riflessione sul pià noto e importante test cognitivo americano, il GED (General Educational Development). Avvalendosi di numerose ricerche empiriche, Heckman e il suo collega Kautz dimostrano che il GED non riesce a misurare le qualità pià importanti di un individuo giunto al termine del percorso scolastico, perchà si basa esclusivamente su aspetti mnemonico-cognitivi e non tiene quindi conto di alcune fondamentali qualità della persona: estroversione, amicalitÃ, coscienziositÃ, stabilità emotiva, apertura all'esperienza. Per anni denominate in senso riduttivo «soft skills» e oggi definite da Heckman «character skills», queste qualità possono essere non solo valutate, ma anche insegnate. Soltanto analizzando il character degli studenti in interazione con i risultati dei test si potrà comprendere se possiedono le caratteristiche necessarie per una buona riuscita nello studio, nel lavoro e nella vita.
