Mathematical Association of America Prognostic Testing Network Project

这个为期12个月的美国数学协会项目 (MAA)将建立预测测试网络。 测试将使用 大学水平的分班考试来预测高中的不足 后辈 随着知识的这些不足，高中生 在大四的时候， 他们的缺点，使进入大学后，他们更有可能 被安排在大学水平的课程。 预测测试程序有 已经在八个州开始或建立，至少有六个州 已知各州对预后测试感兴趣。 马阿 预测测试网络将组织这些工作，并提供一个 可以交换信息的网络和附加状态 可以帮助他们启动自己的项目。 该项目将 主办为期两天的会议，讨论和传播 测试模型和组织MAA预测测试网络。 该项目的成本分摊将是38%。

This twelve-month project of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) will establish a Prognostic Testing Network. The testing will use college-level placement tests to predict deficiencies in high school juniors. With the knowledge of these deficiencies, high school students that plan to go on to college can, during their senior year, remediate their deficiencies so that upon entering college they are more likely to be placed in college level courses. Prognostic testing programs have been either started or established in eight states and at least six states are known to be interested in prognostic testing. The MAA Prognostic Testing Network will organize these efforts and provide a network by which information can be exchanged and additional states could obtain help in starting their own programs. The project will sponsor a two-day conference to discuss and disseminate the prognostic testing model and to organize the MAA Prognostic Testing Network. The cost sharing for this project will be thirty-eight percent.
