• Using Assessments for Instructional Improvement: A Literature Review. (2010, background): “A majority of teachers report that they develop their own tests, quizzes, and examinations (Cizek et al., 1995/1996; Impara et al., 1993; McMillan, 2002).”
• Factors Affecting Teachers’ Grading and Assessment Practices (2007, methodology): “This is an important aspect of guiding principles for instruction in classroom assessment because as McMillan (2003) has suggested, teachers often find it difficult to give a rationale for their grading and assessment practices.”
• What's in a grade? The multidimensional nature of what teacher-assigned grades assess in high school (2011, background): “Historically, much of the literature on grades has relied either on teacher perception of how they grade students (Cizek et al., 1995–1996; Cross & Frary, 1999; McMillan, 2003) or on student’s self-reported grades (Woodruff & Ziomek, 2004), which recently have been shown to be problematic as useful ”
• Being Fair: Teachers’ Interpretations of Principles for Standards-Based Grading (2011, background): “It is clear that teachers are concerned about making fair assessment decisions (Brookhart 1993; McMillan, 2003; Eggen 2004; Rex 2005; Yip and Cheung 2005), but their interpretations of fairness vary greatly (Yung 2001; Zoeckler 2005).”
• Peer and Self-Assessment in High Schools (2005, methodology): “The survey, adapted from one used by McMillan (2001b) , was used to collect data for a study of high school teachers assessment practices.”
• Educational Assessment Knowledge and Skills for Teachers (2011, background): “Further, it is known that beliefs about learning influence teaching (McMillan, 2003) and assessment (Shepard, 2006).”
