[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These tests do not appear to have been validated. Are they really testing the standard? That is the problem. And, you want to judge the teachers and students on the results of poorly written tests. That is a bigger problem.[/quote] Which tests are you talking about? The PARCC tests are in their first year of widespread field testing. The biggest complaints seem to be that they are on a computer and many kids aren't prepared for computer assessments-- a very valid criticism. Also there have been computer crashes and so forth -- another valid criticism.[/quote] For a few more complaints about PARCC field test and and common core-based assessments, scroll down a bit: http://testingtalk.org/responses[/quote]
