BEAR Hosts International Objective Measurement Workshop

The Berkeley Evaluation and Assessment Research (BEAR) Center will host the 13th International Objective Measurement Workshop (IOMW) April 5–6 at UC Berkeley’s International House, and April 7 at the Hotel Durant. The event is held in conjunction with the American Education Research Association’s (AERA) annual meeting April 7–11 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.

Researchers who are interested in the theory and practice of measurement in the human sciences, including education, psychology, sociology and medicine are invited to attend. This year’s conference theme, “measurement as a constructive endeavor,” will offer attendees and presenters an opportunity to reflect on the centrality of the practice of measuring within their work in objective measurement, whether in the construction of instruments or in the development of models and technologies to support measurement.

The submission deadline closed January 16. For more information, visit the IOMW 2006 website. For questions or comments, e-mail IOMW.
