[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m never sure how to read these. I know my kids totally blow off these tests. They finish them as fast as they can. They end up generally with proficient scores but they are well beyond proficient. But they aren’t going to waste any mental energy on these tests. There’s too many tests — we can’t really expect the kids to give these their best effort. I’d be more interested in how many kids are failing the unit tests, which are aligned with curriculum standards and are not retakable.[/quote] It's a hard measurement problem. The kids who are struggling academically are far more likely to not pour their heart out into performing well on a 0-stakes test. Even more, if they were trying to be strategic, intentionally bombing the test might apply pressure on the government to increase school resources. [/quote]
