Statement of the Problem

Judy R. Wilkerson, Ph. D, William Steve Lang et al. · 2006

NCATE (2002) requires the measurement of knowledge, skills, and dispositions as part of its accreditation requirements for teacher education programs (Standard 1) and the use of unit assessment systems to aggregate and analyse data with a view toward program improvement (Standard 2). Data must indicate that candidates meet professional, state, and institutional standards. Institutions nationally are struggling with meeting these two standards. In this presentation, we will provide ten recommendations then describe a five-step design model for developing a standards-driven, task based assessment system that can yield valid, reliable and fair decisions about teacher candidates ’ knowledge, skills, and dispositions on all three sets of standards. This model is integrally linked to sound measurement theory and practice, most notably the Standards of Educational and Psychological Testing (APA, AERA, and NCME, 1999). The recommendations are drawn directly from those standards. This model has evolved over a four year period. Critical Flaws Impeding Validity There are four critical flaws in the typical assessment process, which make meeting psychometric requirements virtually impossible. These flaws result in a hodgepodge or haphazard collection of evidence assembled without use of design frameworks or blueprints

Problem Statement and Objective

2006

Pima County has been facing dwindling water supplies for some time, a situation exacerbated by the current drought. As such, water conservation measures beyond the levels promulgated by the federal government and currently adopted code need to be enacted to preserve the future of our desert environment. However, water resources cannot be regarded in isolation as they are inextricably related to other resources such as energy. Each kWh of thermoelectric generation requires approximately 25 gallons of water with additional amounts used for operating pollution control devices. The U.S. Geological Survey estimates that in 2000, 346 billion gallons of freshwater were used per day in the U.S accounting for approximately 39 % of total freshwater withdrawals. While only 3 % of these withdrawals are actually consumed by the generation process, it still accounts for approximately 10.4 billion gallons per day in 2006. Hence low performance buildings and the manufacture of building materials requiring large amounts of energy contribute indirectly to taxing our water resources. In addressing development issues relating to water and energy, it is deemed more efficient to tackle associated issues for the preservation of our desert environment. These include reducing landfill waste and improving air quality by shifting building material usage to more sustainable

In this technical report, we present the results of the first milestone phase of the Corporate Smart Content sub-project ”Smart Content Enrichment”. We present analyses of the state of the art in the fields concerning the three working packages defined in the sub-project, which are aspect-oriented ontology devel-opment, complex entity recognition, and semantic event pattern mining. We compare the research approaches related to our three research subjects and outline briefly our future work plan.

Statement of Problem Template

Haidy Henry Dusim · UiTM Institutional Repositories (Universiti Teknologi MARA) · 2020

Writing a clear problem statement in research helps the reader to understand the purpose of the study more clearly. However, writing a clear problem statement still becomes an issue. As a result, the reader unable to understand what is the purpose of the research. Hence, this innovation aims to develop a statement of problem template on how to write a clear problem statement. Through this template, researchers may able to have better guidelines on developing a clearer problem statement.
