RE: Exemptions to STAR and other standardized testing
Wurman, You state that state wants: ...assessment reflect the system the best it can .. but seriously, what do the test result show: quality of teacher, socio-economic background od pupil, effectivness approach (such as phonics vs WL), skill of publisher to what degree teacher was 'teaching to the test' or what? Did anyone ever made an analysis of variance or some other attempt to critically evaluate and use the data? What is it good for? |
