Abstract
Teaching according to the vision of the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards will involve numerous changes in the content and instruction of the school mathematics program. Moreover, this vision will also require a change in testing procedures and methods for evaluating the effectiveness of instructional practices (Clarke, Clarke, and Lovitt 1990; EQUALS and California Mathematics Council 1989; NAEP 1987; NCTM 1989). As is pointed out in NCTM's curriculum standards, an evaluation program that is properly aligned with the proposed curriculum standards can no longer use only written tests. Calculators, computers, and manipulatives must be included in the evaluation process.
