[quote=Anonymous][quote]The tests reflect what is in the curriculum. So by saying they "teach the test" you mean they teach the curriculum. Which is how it should be. You seem to forget that [b]teacher quality had gone downhill. That's what this is all about.[/b] The notion that the "teachers know best" as a monolith is ridiculous. Yes, there are good teachers, but not ALL of them are good. What teachers fear more than anything is accountability (which is what teachers' unions were beginning to protect them from). So, spare me. [b]I remember what brought this all on in the first place. It wasn't pretty. [/b][/quote Even if it were true that teacher quality has gone downhill, these tests are not the way to improve teacher quality. Please enlighten us more about what brought this all on. [/quote]
