ABSTRACT

“Toward a Theory of Socioculturally Responsive Assessment” assembled design principles from multiple literatures and wove them into a working definition and a network of empirically testable propositions. The intention was to offer a coherent theoretical framework within which to understand why and how particular assessment designs might work, what actions testing programs should consider, how they might move forward with those actions, and how to evaluate the impact. Dr. Solano Flores offers many comments on these ideas, with which I mostly agree. In this response, I detail those agreements, as well as some points of departure. I close with some implications for revising the Standards.

摘要

“走向社会文化响应评估理论”汇集了来自多种文献的设计原则，并将它们编织成一个工作定义和一个可经验检验的命题网络。目的是提供一个连贯的理论框架，在该框架内理解特定评估设计为何以及如何发挥作用、测试计划应考虑哪些行动、如何推进这些行动以及如何评估影响。索拉诺·弗洛雷斯博士对这些想法提出了许多评论，我大多同意。在本回复中，我详细介绍了这些协议以及一些出发点。最后我对修订标准提出了一些建议。
