The health crisis has been viewed as a factor intersecting with and exacerbating existing racial disparities in educational systems. This book examines these issues in four empirical papers that explore the challenges of implementing virtual standardized testing during the pandemic, the different educational and assessment experiences of diverse groups of school-age students, and the reconsideration of traditional assessment approaches in response to mounting research evidence and concerns around enduring social and racial inequities faced by Black, Latinx, Asian, Indigenous, and other non-white citizens and communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe four conceptual papers in the volume focus primarily on the ways in which assessment may contribute to systemic racism and offer potential solutions to move the educational assessment field forward. In totality, the volume provides needed empirical evidence, innovative methodological approaches, and theoretical and substantive examinations of the effects of the twin pandemics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwin Pandemics will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Educational Assessment, Education, Psychometrics, Educational Research, Ethnic Studies, Research Methods, Sociology of Education, and Psychology. The chapters included in this book were originally published as a special issue of Educational Assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 390g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 254 x 178 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032555270\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44596255949050,"sku":"9781032555270","price":151.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1696005859427_book.jpg?v=1696154041","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/twin-pandemics-how-a-global-health-crisis-and-persistent-racial-injustices-are-impacting-educational-assessment-9781032555270","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
