Preferred term

Ralph Tyler  

Definition(s)

  • The educator Ralph W. Tyler is perhaps best known for his theory that what needs to be measured in the classroom is student learning. As a high school science teacher in Pierre, South Dakota, in 1923, it occurred to him that the tests that students were being given were measuring only a low level of science mastery and not necessarily what students had learned.
