High stake testing has narrowed the curriculum ....
High stakes testing focuses on one type of learning style and there is a lot of cash in those babies. It narrows the curriculum and great lesson plans get kicked to the curb due to time restraints. The teachers are having to teach to the test. ....
Have you been told to throw out great lesson plans and only teach to a test? Have you been told to disregard individual learning styles in your classroom?
Could you list 5 or 6 countries that seem to be outperforming American public schools?
*I* have not.
I don't need to list 5 or 6 other countries. You can't manage to make a direct comparison between states. You damn sure can't manage to do it by country. What else do you have?
