In The Disciplined Mind, Howard Gardner argues that K-12 education should strive for a deep understanding of three classical principles: truth, beauty, and goodness

Such an understanding requires mastery of the major disciplines that human beings have created over the centuries. As powerful examples of his approach, Gardner describes an education that illuminates the theory of evolution, the music of Mozart, and the lessons of the Holocaust. Far from the standardized test mentality that has gripped both policy makers and the public, Gardner envisions an education that preserves the strengths of a traditional humane education while preparing younger generations for the challenges of the future..

Converse and Presser present the guiding principles for writing survey questions. They review recent research on survey questions, consider the lore of professional experience and finally present findings which have the strongest implications on writing these questions.

The authors believe that question writing must be guided by the evidence of rigorous experiment as well as intuition and experience. They are also aware that experimental results cannot be applied mechanically to the mass production of survey questions, but they do suggest a number of ways to make pilot and pre-test work more fruitful.

Survey Questions is highly readable: the authors write with both wit and grace and their material is professionally sophisticated yet accessible.
