[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The situation is made quite clear in this part of the article "The real problem with IMPACT teacher evaluation" (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/post/the-real-problem-with-impact-teacher-evaluation/2011/07/17/gIQAj6cpKI_blog.html) "... 22% of teachers in the affluent Ward 3 were rated “highly effective.” In contrast to only 5% in the high-poverty Ward 8 were ranked highly effective." This fact was miss represented in another DCUM post. But this is the bottom line, people. Poor families make poor students. [/quote] I wouldn't use those words. However, low-SES students tend to start school with much smaller vocabulary and a lot less background knowledge. This doesn't mean that they are poor students. It means that they get lower scores on standardized tests. [/quote]
