Answer to #1

Disagree

Answer to #2

A

Answer to #3

Standardized test batteries measure several curricular areas with the same battery For example, a battery might measure reading, mathematics written expression and spelling. A single-content standardized test measures only one content area (e.g. reading). An advantage of the test battery is that a teacher does not have to purchase separate tests for each content area tested. Another advantage is that the norm group is comparable in a battery through assessment of the curricular areas. A disadvantage is that, because it asks fewer questions at each content area, it may be less reliable and diagnostic than the single-content test. Conversely, norm groups are not comparable across single content tests and hence meaningful comparisons cannot be made across content areas. However, single content area tests are more useful for diagnostic purposes.
