“I guess that I dont know the rules, but if youre referring to testing, I dont have a problem with it. Ive seen the tests here in Texas on math and if you can pass the test you know the subject. If teachers are teaching to the test then they are teaching math - which is a MAJOR IMPROVEMENT in education.”
I believe there was a question of some students who didn’t test well being put into SE classes so their scores didn’t didn’t pull the average down.
“I believe there was a question of some students who didnt test well being put into SE classes so their scores didnt didnt pull the average down.”
There is always a certain percentage of people that test well, and a certain percentage of people that don’t test well. There is NO REASON for that to vary from state to state or school district to school district.
The bottom-line is that if a particular school district doesn’t “test-well” then they’re ALMOST CERTAINLY being taught wrong.
Hopefully NCLB can smoke that out, since the states and locals don’t seem to be able to do anything but MAKE EXCUSES.
