[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a professor in law school who asked the seminar "what does it mean to call someone an 'activist judge'?" After watching us all fumble it he said, "It means a judge who made a ruling you don't agree with." "Teaching to the test" is a fall back for parents who want to discount good test scores at another school and/or dismiss less good scores at their own school.[/quote] I am a teacher and agree 100% All the scrappy teachers in my school have low test scores. They always cry, "I don't teach to a test." I have excellent scores because I teach the standards with rigor and critical thinking. I use academic language all the time. [/quote] Please stop using the word rigor... its gross[/quote]
