[quote=Anonymous]I agree that PARCC is a total waste of time and right after so many AP tests that many kids take. I would rather that time be spent teaching. But, I am having a hard time understanding why teachers would urge kids to do poorly and encourage "tanking" the test. If school and teachers are educators surely it is just wrong to tell your students that they should do bad on anything on purpose? Shouldn't we be teaching kids that you always try your best and even if it a test you disagree with, failing on purpose is wrong and such attitude will develop into bad attitude later on when when it counts? Life is full of things we have to do even if we think they are not important. If I and DH choose not to do something our boss tells us to do because we disagree is needed, we might lose our jobs, no? If we choose not to clean the house because we hate such waste of time and effort, and would rather live in a messy house, when we gets rats, we might rethink the importance of such a "stupid" chore.[/quote]
