The organization for self-evaluation in a large school system

Mary H Sammer, University of Texas at El Paso

Abstract

Evaluation is a relatively new term designed to be used in appraising a modern school system. Our rapidly changing society has necessitated a complete severance from traditional subject matter. Our democratic way of life has led us to consider each child as an individual personality with personal and group problems which must be solved. Old system of appraisal consisting of conventional testsand measurements is neither broad enough nor comprehensive enough to cover our modern curricula. Today appraisal must take into consideration personality changes and the new objectives of a modern educational program. These include not only subject matter achievement but also attitudes, interests and ideals, thinking and working habits, and personal and social adaptability.
