     Extractions: ARTICLE: On Using The Nelson-Denny Test for ESL Students at X College This essay explains why a reading test for American students won't work for non-American students and then shows the limitations of even a good test, such as the TOEFL. On Using The Nelson-Denny Test for ESL Students at X College NOTE: Since I criticized Dr. Ivy's position in this paper, it may seem that I had a poor regard for his teaching abilities, especially with ESL students. That is not true at all; Dr. Ivy was very effective as a teacher and with those students. I have substituted "X," "here," or "this school" for the name of the college where this happened throughout. T he issue being considered is as follows: The East-West Japanese students have taken several reading tests and have scored far below the American standard even after being allowed double time. Ellis Ivey, who has been teaching reading to them, feels that the reading class has been taught in the past to the ESL students with no standard. He suggests that we accept a score of 17.69 on the Nelson-Denny as a passing score since that is the average score earned by the ESL students this year at this school on the higher of their two Nelson-Denny tests (American students must earn 48.3). B efore giving my reply, I would like to explain my background. I am not trained as a reading teacher, but I did teach reading for one year in Kentucky and also for half a quarter to ESL students at the University of Alabama. Furthermore, I earned my second MA degree in TESL. My studies in English as a Second Language included a look at tests and testing. More broadly, we looked at theory and practice in the various areas of language learning and teaching, including reading.

103. Learning Disabilities OnLine: LD In-Depth: Pass The Test Or No Diploma: High Sta
     Indeed, inclusion of children with disabilities in assessments is crucial to determining If we force our best teachers to teach only to the test,

     Extractions: Contents: As of April 2000, 20 states currently required children to pass a uniform, large-scale assessment in order to receive a high school diploma and another 8 plan to adopt one within the next 3 years.( ) That figure has consistently risen over the last decade ( ) and the numbers are likely to continue to climb. Such tests are called "exit exams" or "certification exams" or "competency exams." Many people refer to them as "high stakes" tests because of the consequences they carry; the doors they can open or close for the children who take them. The impact could be greatest on children who may already face restricted options, such as those with learning disabilities ("LD"). Because of neurological difficulties and differences, these children often have problems demonstrating their capacities and usually follow a specialized academic program incorporating accommodations tailored to maximize their academic strengths and minimize their weaknesses. As a result, children with LD are focused on meeting the goals established for them in their own individualized educational programs ("I.E.P".s), and not on some uniform district or state-wide goals. Particularly in instances where children with learning disabilities are given limited notice and lead time in which to master the skills to be tested, the imposition of such standardized assessments can amount to a setup for these children to fail.
