[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I have yet to see any really good defense of the standards.[/b] My problem: it fosters the belief that kids come to the teacher on a plane. They don't.[/quote] Then either you haven't looked, or you have seen it but didn't recognize it as such. The standards are standards. That is all. All that the standards say is, "By the end of x grade, a child should be able to do x." The standards do not say, "If the child cannot do x, it is all 100% the teacher's fault." If people use the raw test results, in isolation, to assess teacher performance, then that is a big problem with that method of teacher performance assessment. But it is not a problem with the standards.[/quote]
