[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has been DEEP IN IT with education research, assessment, and covid, yes, they want you to take the tests. No, there is absolutely no benefit to you or your child. Frankly even the people at the highest levels realize there is very little validity to the results this year. This is a result of the fact that the opt outs are non-random, the tests weren't meant to be done online, the students aren't prepared for this situation, many children don't have the lexical/technical abilities to perform to the best of their ability, many have received non-systematic instruction, etc. I can keep going on. This means that you opting out has little impact overall As someone involved with education research, I should encourage you to participate. As a reasonable human being who has children who I know and love, no. There's no good reason to subject them to that this year.[/quote]
