Educational Measurement
This book introduces and explores major topics in contemporary educational measurement: criterion-referenced testing, item response theory (IRT), computer-based testing, cross-lingual and cross-cultural assessment, and accountability testing. Psychometric experts describe forward-looking measurement practices and provide a contextualized understanding of how and why they were developed, how they can be used, and where they may go in the future. In addition to presenting key concepts and formulas, the volume covers established and emerging applications and discusses recurrent challenges that require additional research. A helpful glossary of abbreviations is included. The book is grounded in the work of Ronald K. Hambleton.
Wolfing Down The Moon

Southpaw Blues
Tom Trinity believes baseball is his life. Even if he throws nothing but no hitters, he’s wrong. Tammy, a runaway, becomes more important than any perfect fastball, as are mystical caves where someone, perhaps his father, teaches him to pitch. Tom fears he might become like his grandfather Dr. Winchester, who commits more heinous crimes than Edgar Allan Poe could ever have imagined. Even though he is groomed by wondrous tales of blue dolphins trapped in giant aquariums and a greenhouse to rival any Amazon jungle, others about Dr. Winchester haunt Tom. They force him out of baseball and into a mother’s betrayal. He slides into who he is and where he has come from as he tries to tame his love for Tammy—a switch-hitter he cannot strike out.

Improving Upper Canada

The book investigates the initial failed attempts to create a single agricultural society for Upper Canada. It examines the 1830 legislation that publicly funded the creation of agricultural societies across the colony to be semi-public agents of agricultural improvement, and analyses societies established in the Niagara, Home, and Midland...
