The Development of a Test of Content Area Reading
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe primary purpose of this study was to develop and pilot test an objective instrument designed to assess secondary school subject area teachers' knowledge of reading as it applies to their teaching. A secondary purpose of the study was to determine how subject area taught, grade level taught, length of teaching experience, attendance in college or university courses emphasizing reading instruction, attendance in course work beyond the bachelor's degree and personal judgment of the anticipated benefit from further training in reading, relate to performance level on the test. The instrument is intended to be utilized in pre-service and in-service teacher training.
