space This module contains four lessons - Item Analysis in the Classroom, Developing Standardized Tests, Validity of Standardized Tests and Fairness of Standardized Tests. In these lessons, we will discuss different ways that teachers can develop and improve their own tests. Additionally, the process by which standardized tests developers produce tests is presented. This module emphasizes two key characteristics of quality tests- validity and the fairness of the test. You will learn what it means to say that a test is valid and how to evaluate whether a test is fair for your students.
