[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What reason do AZ and others give for leaving PARCC? What do they change to? [/quote] Because for the most part it showed what students didn't know!!! I don't know why having a national curriculum is such an issue, other counties have one without too much bother. Parents and educators need to have some idea about what the children are learning, whether they are on track, and be able to compare between schools. If everyone is doing something different nothing makes any sense. If school A does one thing, school b etc. The problem was with the punishment attached to the test scores and firing and closing down schools without understanding the school culture. The DC CAS was an absolute joke, the PARCC is harder and there are problems with the way it is administered and used to assess teachers rather than learners but it is better than the CAS. [/quote]
