  1. Reform

    other uses Original research date April 2009 Reform means to put or change into an improved form or condition to amend or improve by change of color or removal of faults or abuses, beneficial change, more specifically, reversion to a pure original state, to repair, restore or to correct. Reform is generally distinguished from revolution . The latter means basic or radical change whereas reform may be no more than fine tuning, or at most redressing serious wrongs without altering the fundamentals of the system. Reform seeks to improve the system as it stands, never to overthrow it wholesale. Radicals on the other hand, seek to improve the system, but try to overthrow whether it be the government or a group of people themselves. Rotation in office or term limits would, by contrast, be more revolutionary, in altering basic political connections between incumbents and constituents. ref On term limits reform see, http www.ustl.org index.html U.S. Term Limits . On more radical revolutionary changes, including term limits, see, for example, Robert Struble, Jr., http www.tell usa.org Treatise on Twelve Lights To Restore America the Beautiful under God and the Written Constitution, 2007 08 edition. ref The UK government frequently uses the term reform to describe changes to public services, such as the National Health Service .

  1. Spelling test

    A spelling test is an assessment of a person s usually a student s ability to spell words correctly. Spelling tests are usually given in school during language arts class, to see how well each student has learned the most recent spelling lesson. Typical intervals for spelling tests are one per week throughout the school year, except for spelling bee s, which are generally held once per year. Types of spelling tests There are generally four types of spelling tests. In an oral spelling test, the teacher pronounces each word out loud and the students write each word down. In a spelling bee type test see spelling bee below , each student is asked individually one at a time to spell a different specific word out loud. In a proofreading style test, sentences or paragraphs are given to the student on one or more sheets of paper, and the student must find the incorrectly spelled words and supply the correct spellings in the spaces provided. In a multiple choice spelling test, two or more spellings are given for each word in the test, and the student must place a mark next to the one that is correct. The main difference between most spelling tests at school and a spelling bee is that in a spelling bee the students do not get to know in advance which words will be tested, but for regular spelling tests they do.
