Surprise, surprise...I can't wait until all this education nonsense (NCLB, Race to the Top, etc...) unravels. The only problem is that it won't be pretty when it does... No, the problem is that is wasn't pretty before it started and has remained "not pretty" but just in a different way. I can appreciate those such as the OP who lament "teaching to the test", but haven't seen anyone present a better mouse trap. What we had before -- tenured teachers who essentially blamed their students and passed them to the next grade -- wasn't working at all. How does one measure student performance without testing? How does one measure teacher/school/administrator performance without testing? |
