[quote=Anonymous]I used to be a fan of limited standardized testing. I grew up taking the Iowa test of basic skills. I believe in data, and while there are variables (some kids don't test well, etc), and teaching to he test is an issue, it seems like getting longitudinal data is a good thing. And then I learned about PARCC - the contracts, the developers - and how it was implemented in DCPS - online only, in schools without good online service, essay questions to be typed by third graders ,etc. And I took a few sample PARCC questions, with the split screens, the scrolling. ..... and I think PARCC is really, really dreadful. And how it is implemented in DC is beyond bad. [/quote]
