(PDF - Click here for help) As an ongoing activity, the National Council on Measurement in Education encourages interested people to consider careers in the growing field of educational testing and measurement. Trained people are needed in the profession, and it is clear that this demand will continue. Contributions of Educational Measurement Specialists Educational measurement specialists make many contributions to the improvement of schools and educational programs in schools, colleges, and universities, and other educational settings. They may have a direct impact on individual students by finding better ways to assess their needs, or they may provide information to state or local policy-making bodies that could lead to increased effectiveness and greater accountability for all our educational institutions. There are many aspects to this fascinating field. A measurement specialist might work in schools with teachers and students, in a publishing company, in a university setting, at the policy level of an educational organization, or as a consultant to any one of a variety of professions. Disciplines of Educational Measurement Specialists People enter this field from many disciplines. Education, mathematics, psychology, and the liberal arts are all well represented int he backgrounds of measurement professionals. For many positions, two years of graduate work (usually leading to a master's degree in educational measurement) is sufficient entry-level training. More advanced positions require a doctoral degree.

Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Psychologists study the human mind and human behavior. Research psychologists investigate the physical, cognitive, emotional, or social aspects of human behavior. Psychologists in applied fields provide mental health care in hospitals, clinics, schools, or private settings. Like other social scientists, psychologists formulate hypotheses and collect data to test their validity. Research methods vary depending on the topic under study. Psychologists sometimes gather information through controlled laboratory experiments or by administering personality, performance, aptitude, and intelligence tests. Other methods include observation, interviews, questionnaires, clinical studies, and surveys.

Moral and Character Development Author: W. Huitt First written: 1991; Revised: 1994, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 Educational Psychology Interactive Bill Huitt's Home Page A. Introduction B. Impacting moral and character development C. Three exemplary programs D. Summary and conclusions E. References Introduction As previously stated in the section related to desired student outcomes (Huitt, 1997a), in my opinion there are three major issues in the education of young people today. The first is the development of a vision for one's life that includes the discovery and/or defining of one's life mission and desired lifestyle. The second is the development of one's character, dealing with concerns of direction and quality of life. The third deals with the development of competence that deals with concerns of how well one is able to do something. These three issues are addressed specifically in the SCANS report (Whetzel, 1992) and in my critique of that report (Huitt, 1997). Similarly, Walsh (1990) defines education as the process that prepares young people for their social inheritance and advocates three dimensions of educationdevelopment of knowledge, training of mental abilities, and development of character. The issues of vision and competence permeates other sections of these materials (e.g., information processing abstract thinking critical thinking conation/volition .) The focus of this section will be the issue of character. The following two definitions provide examples of a normative view of character:

Catalog: Denison University: 2002-2003 Prev Courses of Study 2002-2003 Next Educational Studies Faculty Karen Graves, Coordinator Faculty from the Departments of Education, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology/Anthropology, and Communication. Departmental Guidelines and Goals The interdepartmental major and minor in Educational Studies are designed to teach participants about important educational issues in our society, to provide the background for service or careers in non-school settings, and/or to help students prepare themselves for a program in elementary education. The major might be especially appropriate for the person with a broad interest in educational matters or in educational departments of hospitals, correctional institutions, museums, zoos, mental institutions, and churches. The minor could be accompanied by a departmental major in one of the disciplines with an obvious relationship to a particular career, e.g., biology and outdoor education, or art history and museum education. Neither program is intended to have a narrow vocational focus. Rather, both are designed with the recognition that the liberal arts can be related to the real world of informed citizenship as well as provide the context within which numerous careers in education are developed. Educational Studies Major The major requires a minimum of 36 semester hours of credit, including a core of 24 semester-hours distributed among several departments. A concentration of at least four courses must be completed in either the Department of Psychology, Sociology/Anthropology, or Communication. Additional courses may be chosen from Education and Philosophy in consultation with the Coordinator. Supplementing formal coursework are a required non-credit workshop in selection and use of media and an appropriate internship (e.g., May Term, summer job). Four or more courses taken for the major must be at the 300 or 400 level. The following are required:
