[quote=Anonymous][quote]You are exactly right. The testing has not changed what is going on in the schools at all. It has made no difference.[/quote] The same schools that were doing well before the testing are doing well now (and are wasting time taking the tests and paying for them, but they can better withstand that fly buzzing around them). The schools that were not doing well before are doing even worse now because the tests have not created the right teaching emphasis. The schools in the middle are probably suffering to some degree. It has created some jobs at testing companies, scoring the tests, and creating spreadsheets and reports. That could be good for the economy, but it may have been better to put the money into roads and bridges. [/quote]
