The Evaluation 'for Individualized Instruction Project, an ESEA Title IILproject administered by the Downers Grove, Illinois, School District 99, has developed an Objactive-Item Bank covering, sixteen sectors Of four subjectareas in each of four grads levels.

The complete output of seventeen volumes totals over 4500 pages. These pUbli- cations have been reproduced by the Institute for Educational Research to make them available at cost to teachers and administrators. The objectives and items were written by over 300 elementary and secondary teachers, representing fOrty Chicago suburban school districts, who participated in. workshops of three to nine weeks duration throughout the project. In..these workshops they leirned to write effective behavioral objectives'and test based on the objectives. The results of. their work 'were edited for content and *c° measurement quality to compile the largest pool of objectives and test itemsever asSembled. PRINCIPLES AND MERITS Unfortunately, the Objective-Itemlank is ofteaviewedmainly.as a source of test. items. Although 'this is an importaat function,its greatestpotentialimpact . lies not in the availability.of a multitude of test iteesc'but rather in the ability of these items 'to measure carefully selected.educational 'goals. The, alaost frenetic search for test items on thepart of.some educators has been spurred by the current emphasis on measurement.Some educators:have become so enamored with measurement that they'semi more. interested in Obtaining a numer- ical index than examining- what they are really*Tingto measure.Further, it is. 3. 3 o" a t. not:in:usual for teachers to speak about a child obtaininga score'of.95%on particular test.Frequently, they encounter considerable difficulty in inter- preting.the real meaning of a score and are content to just acCept its numeral value.A much 'more important question would seem to be:Mat are our .goals of measurement?Unless we can answer/this question precisely, the only real pur- posit that testing serves is to gather data concerning pupils to facilitate the marking of report cards.This is it to say that this function is not legiti- mate - it is rather to say that such a view of measurement is much too constric- ting.The goal of measurement should be to proVide feedback both to the teacher and the child regarding the success or failure of the learning- experiences in realising specifically stated objectives.- ... One ot the main .strengths of the Eli Objective and Item Bank is that all the items are directly tied to specifically stated objectiVes. ;Bach group of items is designed to measure 11 specific objective and therefore provides the means whereby -the teacher can obtain feedback on.the success pf the educational program. It is° disheartening to observe so many districts attacking the, complex problem -of curriculum development independently. / One cannot help reflecting on the .isamuilth duplication of efforts involved.The Objective-Item Bank offers a poisi- / ble alternative to this duplication.. Utilising its resources, the curriculum / committee is provided, with,30010 point of departure. .The efforts of ithree hundred teachers participating inithe Evaluation Project's workshops and the thoughts of/ forty districts can be evaluated and utilized.This is az, to suggest that any. set of objentives ,should be viewed as the "answer" to an individual district's I curricular problem. but rather the efforts 9f others offer/a Convenient point of / departure and may serve to .stimulate diverse opcnioris abott the direction of curricular thrust within the individual district.The words of Sir Isaac Newton seem appropriate; "If I have :leen further, it .is by standing upon the shoulder . of giants."The efforts of others, whether we consider them giant-like-or pygmyish, ° do offer a throhold to view the immense, complicated problem of curricular development in botter-perspective. The title of in article in a recent educational journal, "If You're Not Sure Mere You're .Going, You're Liable to End, up Someplace Else," succinctly describes continuing dilemma inour educational system.The vagueness of Our-goals often. ,promotes the idea.that "anything goes."Without a guiding beacon'many classrooms become activity-centwed rather\than goal-oriented.Meeeducator recently cos- parel the all-too-typical classroom with Henry Ford's observation 'concerning his- tory.He-defined history as, ".0ne damned thing after another."Is 'this true of the succession of activities within our classrooms? .Does--the teacher really know the educational purpose of each activity?Perhaps, even more importantly, do the 'children know the purpose?,,,/ . : . The0jective-ItemBank offers a mechanism to assist teachers in stating raPre speciAiCelly the.goals of their instructional program and .'further .provides the means to' determine the extent to which the objectives are accomplished.The specification-of. goals assists the .teacher in discovering whether favored acti vities advance learning, or are merely time fillers; whether they get the "mate-. riali" across, or are merely perfunctory exercises. Much discussionhas beendevoted to the topic of"Ayindividualized instruction?" and occaaionally some dialogueheseven centered on theliaw"But an even more basic question is one thatAsoften ignored: -"Individualize01.?"

AwesomeBy Leeloo He loves her blood, but does her love her?!There is a world of myth and magic that intersects ours, and only a special few can see it. Misao Harada is one such person, and she wants nothing to do with magical realms. She just wants to have a normal high school life and maybe get a boyfriend. But she is the bride of demon prophecy, and her blood grants incredible powers, her flesh immortality. Now the demon realm is fighting over the right to her hand...or her life! Misao has made the choice to forgo college and a normal human life in order to be Kyo’s wife and mother to the demon child she carries. But her pregnancy is unusual, even for the demon world. The last pages of the Senka Roku will reveal the truth of the matter, but now that Kyo has it in his hands, does he really want to know…? Reads R to L (Japanese Style) for teen plus audiences.

FRANK BAUM This Book is Dedicated To My Granddaughter OZMA BAUM To My Readers Some of my youthful readers are developing wonderful imaginations. This pleases me. Imagination has brought mankind through the Dark Ages to its present state of civilization. Imagination led Columbus to discover America. Imagination led Franklin to discover electricity. Imagination has given us the steam engine, the telephone, the talking- machine and the automobile, for these things had to be dreamed of before they became realities. So I believe that dreams—day dreams, you know, with your eyes wide open and your brain-machinery whizzing—are likely to lead to the betterment of the world. The imaginative child will become the imaginative man or woman most apt to create, to invent, and therefore to foster civilization. A prominent educator tells me that fairy tales are of untold value in developing imagination in the young. I believe it.
