[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need to acknowledge stereotype threat and that standardized tests are culturally biased. Additionally, public school needs are seen as “products” that need to “deliver results.”[/quote] Are they biased against first generation Asian immigrants for whom English is a second language and are adapting to a new culture? No they are not. Other American demographics have been here hundreds of years and have English as a first language and for whom their parents and grandparents spoke as a first language, which means they are culturally and linguistically privledged over newer demographics. The cultural bias assertion is easy to take down.[/quote]
