@JessedHagopian How would you make standardized tests designed for college entry (such as the ACT or SAT) culturally relevant?

@JessedHagopian Do you see the opt-out movement ever expanding to the ACT or SAT?
Why teach students to merely eliminate wrong answers? Why not teach them to think up their own? #NoMoreTests #OptOut @JessedHagopian
What are the ethics of testing boycotts? For the parents, teachers, or students to decide? @Sarah4Justice #opt-out #testreform
@RahmEmanuel Why focus on lengthening the school day when 14% of students are living on the street?? #priorities #AJustChicago #CTU
@ChiPubSchools Kids can't and won't learn if they're not healthy #HealthFirst #MoreSchoolNurses
There's no need for all states to have #CommonCore in common- students can't be standarized
Who is NOT writing the #CommonCore standards is just as important as what the standards consist of
To David Coleman @collegeboard: Students must learn to be critical, not only close readers #CommonCore #criticalliteracy
More testing is not the answer. #lesstestslessstress #nocommoncore
Common Core? More like #commonbore Teachers deserve to personalize their curriculum for their students

#TFA teachers aren't well prepared and don't stay long...we have better options. #GrowYourOwn
Society has this obsession with being color blind. I hate to break it to you, but just because you don't see me doesn't mean I don't see you
"testucation" = the misappropriation of testing for assessment and testing as "learning" #morethanascore @JessedHagopian #RheetoRavitch
Charter schools are here to stay, but how can we persuade for-profit investors to make charter schools work for ALL students? #RheetoRavitch
@YTcollective If I am against testing but my students may benefit from it, what should I do as a teacher then? #RheetoRavitch
Growing pains in Ed Reform may be inevitable, but what about the students who miss out in the now?
There is no "neutral" curriculum. There can only be an education of damaging or constructive narratives.
