[quote=Anonymous]You need to contact DOE for Virginia. I moved here from out of state and teach History and noticed things that aren't particularly "right". History is pretty subjective and if the kids were really learning how to be historians, they would know to evaluate all perspectives and sources, and that memorizing facts is NOT what a historian does. Unfortunately, I am stuck. I tell the kids to evaluate all their sources, including myself and the textbooks because they can have differing answers to the same things, but that the test they take at the end of the year will expect a particular answer... Virginia just passed a law that ties teacher performance to student performance (which means they will tie it to the SOL)...40% will come from this.[/quote]
