[quote=Anonymous]Theoretically, a child should be able to demonstrate comprehension of the mathematics standards independent of language ability -- for instance, a kid who is a second language learner of English but who has competency in a particular field of mathematics should get credit for that. Practically, it's incredibly difficult to design an assessment that does that. You can test kids in their native languages, but those tests are expensive to develop, and typically only exist in Spanish and in a very narrow range of contexts. There are also some "language independent" tests but they are in their developmental infancy and not widely used.[/quote]
