An investigation of teacher-student interactions during standardized testing in elementary school classrooms

Abstract

dc:description

This is a case study that investigated intermediate elementary school teachers' behaviors and attitudes toward the Metropolitan Achievement Test, 6th ed. (MAT6). The purpose of this study was to investigate the testing behaviors and attitudes of elementary school teachers toward the MAT6. From a Virgin Islands school district, six regular classroom fifth-grade teachers were randomly selected from three similar schools for classroom observation while they administered the MAT6 in October 1992. A total of 29 of the district's fifth-grade teachers responded to a 24-item objective and open-ended questionnaire.
