[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If schools punish students or teachers for anything that has to do with standardized testing (getting back to the subject of this thread), standardized testing will be gone quickly. Punitive measures and threats just show the desperation to keep this testing going when people know it is not working. If the testing were great, they would not have to use punitive measures to keep it going. [/quote] And again, the "punitive measures" are strictly local. Neither NCLB nor RtTT require firings or punitive measures. RtTT is gone now but it had "teacher evaluations" as part of it but even RtTT didn't specify the evaluation methodology let alone require firings or punitive measures. "Evaluations" as defined in RtTT could mean any number of things, but all were left to the local level. But again, RtTT is GONE and NCLB does not require evaluations, firings or punitive measures.[/quote]
