Handbook of Accessible Achievement Tests for All Students - Bridging the Gaps Between Research, Practice, and Policy
Drawing on an extensive theoretical and research base, and covering both policy concerns and test design issues, this handbook shows how to move student assessment beyond ‘universal’ standards and towards practices that genuinely enhance learning outcomes. This Handbook is an essential reference for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in education and allied disciplines, including child and school psychology, social work, special education, learning and measurement, and education policy.

There has been considerable interest recently in the subject of patterns in permutations and words, a new branch of combinatorics with its roots in the works of Rotem, Rogers, and Knuth in the 1970s. Consideration of the patterns in question has been extremely interesting from the combinatorial point of view, and it has proved to be a useful language in a variety of seemingly unrelated problems, including the theory of Kazhdan—Lusztig polynomials, singularities of Schubert varieties, interval orders, Chebyshev polynomials, models in statistical mechanics, and various sorting algorithms, including sorting stacks and sortable permutations.
