[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the options other than PARCC? If it’s not a great test and there are better out there that’s one thing. But it seems like there is some hostility to measuring competencies and that is not something you can avoid forever in many fields, whether your are a plumber or a surgeon. [/quote] The district could have improved the homegrown DC-CAS rather than embracing PARCC 7 years ago. DC could also have gone with Smarter Balanced, PARCC's main national competitor and a much better test. The states who adopted Smarter Balanced 10 years ago tend to have stuck with it. Congress never required PARCC of the District.[/quote] They could even use MAP testing if they wanted to show growth from fall to spring. They could use end of course exams for middle and high school.[/quote]
