This manuscript presents the results of a nationwide teacher education survey which attempted to ascertain how adequately colleges and universities are preparing prospective elementary teachers in the area of “tests and measures.” Nine hundred forty institutions were mailed a questionnaire which requested data on the specific requirements which undergraduates were expected to fulfill in order to be graduated and awarded state certification. Over 97% of the institutions which were originally surveyed returned questionnaires. The data indicate that upon graduation from college, most prospective elementary classroom teachers are better prepared to conduct impromptu art and music lessons than they are to evaluate pupil performance.
