Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

My name is Bridget Kraemer. I'm a mom of 3 1/2 year old twin boys. I'm trying to get a handle on my children's education options. I live in a community that has done poorly on the standardized tests. As you know, more class time goes to preparing for the tests. Our community relies on the money it receives from the government for the schools. I've been reading you can boycott the tests, but won't that cause the schools to lose money? I don't quite understand both sides of the argument (for and against testing). Could someone guide me to a website or clarify things for me. Thank you. Bridget --------------------------------- 8:00? 8:25? 8:40? Find a flick in no time with theYahoo!
