Classrooms are not built equal. The grading is highly subjective based on the teacher and there is a strong incentive to make it seem like kids are doing better than they really are. Nothing can replace a standardized test that puts everyone on an objectively measurable plane.
- germinalphrase 3y agoIf there were a common tool for integrating assessment into instruction, it would be possible to continue to rank/sort students regardless of their educational context. Understanding the rigor of the course itself would necessarily be quantifiable as well. Think of it more like "we do a standardized test every lesson/week/month" instead of once a year.
