2478. Najimy, Norman C. (ed.) [project director]. (1981). Measure for measure: A guidebook for evaluating students' expository writing [reprint of pamphlet published by the Massachusetts Department of Education]. Urbana, IL: National Council of Teachers of English.
Annotation: Najimy describes "holistic scoring" and recommends it for class use. The description fits standard Educational Testing Service methodology: sample papers are used to get a notion of the 1-4 scale; two independent scores more than a point apart are read by the person "appointed chief reader" (p. 7). Najimy notes that a holistic reading is efficient, requires "consensus among scorers," instigates good discussion among readers, and "usually stresses positive aspects of students' writing" (p. 7). [This last was standard advice to readers of Advanced Placement essays: see Vopat, 1981.] In class the process involves just scoring of papers 1 to 4, no training, and afterwards a discussion of criteria (accuracy, clarity, organization, etc.). Najimy says that this holistic method is adapted from the Basic Skills Assessment: Manual for Scoring the Writing Sample (Educational Testing Service, 1977). [Najimy's pamphlet is a reprint of one published by the Massachusetts Department of Education.] RHH [Rich Haswell & Norbert Elliot, Holistic Scoring of Written Discourse to 1985, WPA-CompPile Research Bibliographies, No. 27]
