- klyrs 5y agoThe question is not whether or not to measure, it's how much of your resources do you devote to performing the measurement. From what I saw of NCLB, the measurement was extremely resource-intensive, and severely hindered teachers' ability to teach: that is an argument against this specific methodology of measuring, not measurement in general. That it was then used to justify stupid decisions was salt in the wound.
