AB - Abstract
The late 20th Century saw the rapid rise of quality assurance
and effectiveness measures in most industries and
organisations. These trends were very much reflected in
education at all levels. An associated emergent trend in
primary and secondary education in Australia was growth in the
use of standardised measures of student achievement that
increasingly served (and continue to serve) as a major source
of data in judging school effectiveness. While cognitive
measures are important outcomes of schooling, it is reasonable
to argue that interpretations of quality and effectiveness
that do not include affective measures are too narrow. In
particular, these criteria sacrifice what may be regarded as
more complex and aesthetic measures of quality and
effectiveness, such as student perceptions of aspects of their
life at school. This paper is concerned with the use of
affective measures as important components of school
effectiveness and quality assurance as well as the associated
implementation of school reform and school improvement to
enhance these measures.
