[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid nails the parcc test every time because he mastered the test taking. There are probably many kids who didn't do as well, but they are much more knowledgeable.[/quote] You're being modest! Mastering test taking is basically a proxy for high executive functioning, processing speed, and working memory. But your point is well taken. These skills can also be taught -- and a school that spends a ton of time teaching test-taking skills will see an improvement in PARCC scores. That may be to the detriment of other types of learning.
