[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As long as the government is evaluating schools and teachers on test scores--and that is the plan--schools will be training kids to pass tests rather than educating them. It's the "fear" factor.[/quote] Then that's a failing of that particular school, not of testing. If you teach the kids with a solid curriculum that also happens to meet the learning objectives laid out in the test then you don't need to teach to the test. The test isn't asking kids to learn anything weird, obscure or non-relevant.[/quote]
