Education: Liberals In Charge

[Moonglow]

We are in a better position than the last president..but you run with that...

That's a fib.

Want the list of failures?

Only if you list GOP failures also, but you won't...

Since you can't seem to find any....one is led to conclude that, either...

a. you are a lazy sot.

b. there are ...let's make that 'conservative'....failures.

You made the offer, I didn't..If you can't find any maybe your a child left behind...

Not:
"You made the offer, I didn't..If you can't find any maybe your a child left behind..."

This:
"You made the offer, I didn't..If you can't find any maybe you're a child left behind..."


Government school grad,huh?


And...I made no offer, I issued a challenge.....which you failed.

Just teething you

Yet the best rated education systems in the world are run by liberals. Huh, go figure.

17th in the world is hardly something to strut. Pretty damned embarrassing, actually. Thank Gawd for homeschool. At least there will be some remaining in America who can provide jobs and leadership in the future.

17th is pretty good when you are measuring top apples vs all the apples. We test and measure everyone....the top countries only test and measure their top students. They track...we no longer do because of the ridiculous mantra that "all are college and career ready" and everyone is college bound.....lol

 

[Moonglow]

You mean those with liberal grading. Small wonder. Atlanta, Chicago and I'm sure Baltimore Saint Louis are graduating millions of Michael Brown who can hardly write their names.

Moron. Look up the top rated countries for education.

Wow. Please tell me you're joking when you say that.

Sure, South Korea, Japan and Singapore are bastions of liberalism. It must be the failure of inner cities to adopt such liberalism that makes them shit holes and educational vacuums.

What is it that the Asian countries have that we do not? Hint: longer school days and weeks and years....and uber supportive parents.

Big picture: American students are no longer the tops in international competitions...

....smaller picture: cheating and corruption, rampant.


1. "Like Captain Renault in Casablanca , Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña is “shocked, shocked” to discover that there’s lots of cheating in the city’s public schools.

2. ....unnerved by the New York Post’s recent reporting on this scandal ....: ditch the experts and save the city’s beleaguered taxpayers the $5 million that the panel is expected to cost.

3. Fariña doesn’t need the experts because she already knows everything there is to know about the rampant culture of grade inflation and other forms of cheating ....

4. During her long career in the city schools, Fariña has seen it all: grade tampering, scrubbing of student test sheets, and the serial abuses of the “credit-recovery” system that allows many students to graduate despite not having passed all of the course work required by the state of New York.

5. Fariña served as a Brooklyn superintendent when a Regents cheating scandal erupted under her nose at the Cobble Hill High School for American Studies.
A few years later, Fariña was deputy chancellor for teaching and learning when PS 33, a poor elementary school in the South Bronx, seemed to have hit the jackpot on the state’s reading test. Over 83 percent of the school’s fourth-graders scored at or above proficiency (or grade level), up from 43 percent the previous year. The school’s miraculous test results were just four percentage points below the average for the state’s richest suburban districts.

But.... there was actually no education miracle at the school. It was just another case of test tampering that went unpunished because of a bungled investigation by the Department of Education.

6. ...she was fully aware that the push for higher test scores and graduation rates was pressuring educators to meet those benchmarks by any means necessary, legal or illegal.



7. ...massive cheating scandals had also been uncovered in urban school districts around the country, including Atlanta, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Philadelphia. With these events as context and background, it’s astonishing that Fariña did nothing to create tougher security protocols....



8. ....there’s a broader dimension to the current crisis that has largely gone unmentioned. Teachers are often tempted to cheat when they realize that their students haven’t mastered the academic content that would allow them to pass more stringent tests.

9. At that point, educators can either acknowledge their own failures in the classroom and consider the causes or they can tamper with the testing system to engineer “better” results."

True story.

As is the case with so very many Liberal attempts to hide the truth...your explanation fails in the face of the facts.


Now....about those government schools that Liberals are so very proud of.....the ones that result in "Fifteen-year olds in the U.S. today are average in science and reading literacy, and below average in mathematics, compared to their counterparts in [other industrialized] countries.”

BS.

There have been no studies of homeschooled students’ academic performance that have used representative samples rather than recruiting volunteer participants.

Homeschooling Educational Neglect - Coalition for Responsible Home Education

 

[Carla_Danger]

Just an FYI...

• Notice: Parents in eleven states do not need to file a notice of homeschooling with state or local education officials or have any contact with education officials whatsoever. In these states, there is little to nothing ensuring that homeschooled students receive an education.
• Parent education qualifications: Thirty-nine states have no parent education requirements, meaning that parents can homeschool their children even if they never completed school themselves.
• Required Subjects and Instruction Time: While most states have subject requirements and/or required hours of instruction, some have neither.
• Records: Most states have no record keeping requirements, meaning that there is nothing ensuring that academic records are either created or maintained.
• Assessment: Twenty-five states have no assessment requirement. In these states, state and local education officials do not monitor homeschooled students’ academic progress, and parents are not required to produce any proof of academic progress. Of the twenty-five states that have assessment requirements, all but nine either allow parents to educate their children at home under other options that do not require assessments, do not require parents to turn assessments in, or do not use these assessments to initiate an intervention process for students struggling and in need of academic assistance.
