BUT, isn't the only line about test scores this one:<BR/>"And for the first time, those critiques will be based on both observations and students' performance on anything from quizzes to homework."<BR/><BR/>I really think in today's educational climate, "test scores" suggests standardizes tests. Quizzes and HW are assigned in the classroom and often made by the teacher- TESTS are often standard, and I don't think the article addresses that. The headline seems unduly inflammatory.Stamford Talkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10145856659548079358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481685117023521386.post-30848519326918479192008-08-20T09:28:00.000-04:002008-08-20T09:28:00.000-04:00wow.

Perhaps it should read "performance" instead. But I think it is evident in the article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
