[quote=Anonymous]Not many people can see what 'not teaching to the test' looks like, as it rarely happens. Some schools use "Paced Interim Assessment" (PIA); it is administered 5x/year in grades 2-10 in participating schools. ANet is administered 4x/year in about 1/3 of schools, in grades 3-8. DIBELS, for grades k-2/3 (?--not sure of grade levels) is administered 2-3x/year, usually by classroom teacher, one-on-one. This information is available on the DCPS website (except DIBELS). All of these tests mean less instructional time; as noted above, DIBELS can mean the teacher is out of the classroom. The data supplied by test results are supposed to inform teaching until the next test administration. All of these tests are meant to prepare students for the DC-CAS--this is how the entire system is judged and evaluated. [/quote]
