The Testing Flailure 0
John Romano comments on the problem with standardized testing in Florida’s schools, but his comments do not apply only to Florida. A snippet:
They want to blame local school districts for the proliferation of tests. They want to blame parents for testing anxiety. They want to blame teachers for bad-mouthing tests.
They want to point fingers everywhere else but the real problem:
The outsized importance of the state’s tests.
Every other problem stems from this obsessive notion that accountability can only be derived by the results of a single test created by some faceless corporate interests.
