[quote=Anonymous][quote]You're missing the point. The complaining and "high stakes" moniker only seems to come up when it affects teachers. But when it was affecting millions of students nobody cared.[/quote] People have been complaining about these "high stakes" tests for years. People complain about the effect they have in narrowing the curriculum for STUDENTS. Yes, people care about the effect on students. Also, what affects the teachers affects the students. The two are very closely linked because the teacher is teaching the students. Teachers give instruction. Instruction affects students. Therefore, teachers affect students. "High stakes"tests affect instruction. You can't affect one thing without affecting the rest. When you talk about any of it, you are talking about impacts on students. [/quote]
