[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You have pointed out that a center piece of NY implementation failure was "They didn't field test this assessment, they just rolled it out and kids had a terrible time on the test, and all failed." A high level question is, "Will people be happy if all kids passed the test?" May or may not. MSA had been complained for being too easy. People in this forum complained that P is everywhere. [/quote] Rich school districts are not used to having lots of kids fail a test, and everyone is upset if a rich, smart kid gets all stressed out taking a test. If kids in PG County fail the new PARRC tests, no one will give a damn, but if Montgomery County Betheda kids fail it in droves, people will not be happy.[/quote] Okay, now the play field is leveled for all kids, no matter socioeconomic background and skin color. If they lower the standard at this point, all the kids will be able to pass the examine.[/quote]
