I
predict there will be lots of discussion about testing in connection with
"rewriting" the federal education law. And some of this will be a call for multiple
measures, which seems to be a step in the right direction, especially when
proponents mention seemingly reasonable assessments, eg student feedback,
classroom observations.
Watch
out: Anthony Cody points out that these measures are considered valid by the
Gates Foundation only if they correlate with higher test scores (chapters 2 and
3, The Educator and the Oligarch, 2014, Garn Press).
