[quote=Anonymous]The thing I worry about is the grading. It sounded like the tests were going to be developed by the instructional design team at Gatehouse and then provided to the elementary teachers. For schools that used this last year, it was all multiple choice questions on Performance Matters or Google Forms. It didn't allow for partial credit in math, which I think is a key part of math testing. And also it is pretty clear that most teachers who are going to teach this class in elementary school, while they're licensed to teach it, will lack the ability to teach it because they've never taught it before (unless you happen to be a math teacher from middle or high school who transferred into an elementary school--how many of those do we have in FCPS elementary schools???).[/quote]
