Thanks for posting news about...Dear Students Last,<br /><br />Thanks for posting news about New York State's Education Commissioner John King press conference on this. It is truly amazing and tragic that irate commentators beg for more. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4825564092223985753.post-86463148980109625662013-01-21T12:45:56.493-08:002013-01-21T12:45:56.493-08:00I thought I was going to read an insightful post o...I thought I was going to read an insightful post on test and instead found more liberal biases. You are obviously not a teacher and don't understand what it is like in the trenches with 30 kids in a class. Without this extra testing I would not have time during the day to check Facebook and complete my online shopping for birthdays and Christmas. I used to spend my summer researching and planning units, but now since they are given to me I can sit back and relax. You don't seem to understand the stress of having to pass out, read directions, collect, pass out, read directions, and collect tests day after day. Without having the time to relax over the summer I might accidentally forget to collect a test...do you know the trouble our school system would be in? You also forget about all the professional development I have to attend in order to interpret the data from these tests. Remove the tests, the meetings get removed. Remove the meetings, and there goes my opportunity to break the next level on Angry Birds. It is obvious you are one of those hippies who wants to arrive early and stay late, well buddy, that is a recipe for a heart attack. Next time you are at the doctors being warned about your high blood pressure due to your project based authentic learning experiences, you might start thinking differently about the positive benefits of testing. Test longer, live longer. <br />Let me guess...your next post is on why we should have organic lunches? <br />By the way, I know Aaron Bossier...all he did in class was complain about the lack of recess and computers, not the kind of kid you want to go around quoting. <br />paul bogushhttp://paulbogush.orgnoreply@blogger.com
