State's graduation exam passes latest test - 1 views

  • The regulation calls for the state to provide 10 end-of-course exams, beginning with English literature, Algebra 1 and biology in 2010-11, with other English, math, science and social studies subjects being phased in through 2016-17.

      I'm wonderfing what the other subjects will be.
  • School districts would be required to count the exams for at least one-third of a student's final grade or districts could use other options, including validated local assessments or Advanced Placement exams instead. Districts also could set up a project for students who failed exams.

      So, someone at the state level will create a test that every student must pass, or they fail the course. Is there ANY DOUBT WHATSOEVER that teachers will now be teaching to that test? ALL curriculum around the state will have to change to match those tests.
  • Opponents of the exams told the regulatory commission that the testing program would cost too much to administer and be unfair to otherwise good students who perform poorly on standardized tests.
    • anonymous
       
      I think it's sad that their concern was first about the cost and not what it would do to teaching and learning in the state.

  • We understand the system now,
  • Some have said that the exams would discourage students who have a hard time taking tests and would prompt them to drop out.
