[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the purpose of MCAPs? To get individual data on the progress of each kid? Or assess the effectiveness of the school’s teaching on a broader level?[/quote] I wish they could simply use MAP and reduce the amount of testing. I mean even taking MAP-M/R 3 times per year seems excessive and I'm all for accountability.[/quote] My thoughts exactly. They all take map anyway, why can't that be the statewide assessment? [/quote] This +10000. There is absolutely no need for additional state test beyond MAP. And MAP now has other test for Science and Social Studies. Stop the madness. I know no teacher or parent who doesn’t feel the same. Yes, we need an assessment, but it doesn’t need to be multiple times per year. Talk to your representatives folks. This weeks of lost time to testing is madness that needs to cease.[/quote]
