  • Topic: Background

Testing and accountability are not the same. Testing is how we measure student learning. Accountability is the process of locating the reasons for success or failure. Testing is necessary to determine if our students are learning. Accountability is necessary to improve low success rates or, in the unusual case, offer congratulations.
