As our good friend Delaine Eastin says, you dont fatten a pig by weighing it more. Pardon the analogy, people, but are we going down the wrong road here? AGAIN? REMINDER: We are still at or near the bottom in funding and outcomes, and 51st by HUGE margins in student: teacher, student: counselor and student: librarian. Testing does not help there nor does it generate resources (not that it does not have its place)...it becomes just another distraction. Look away from the shiny ball...kids are funneling into our top-rated and very well-funded prison system! Thank you Robert Reich from the view from the field. Again. When will we learn?
