"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)

You might find Chapter 6 of *High Stakes: Testing for Tracking,
Promotion, and Graduation* by the National Academy of Sciences of use in
your discussions. The chapter can be downloaded page by page from the
National Academies wed-site; the following link opens to the first page of
the chapter:

Hope this is illuminating.
