Robert Schaeffer Tests Quotations

Standardized testing has become the arbiter of social mobility, yet there is more regulation of the food we feed our pets that of the tests we give our kids

The testing explosion often creates overlaps between tests mandated at the district level, the state level and the federal level,

The truth is that there is stronger public oversight and control over the food we feed our pets than for the tests administered to our children. We simply cannot trust the testing industry to oversee itself.

People are under the false illusion that because the tests are graded by a machine that the process is objective. But everything, including programming the machine and doing quality control on it, is, in fact, done by human beings. And all humans make mistakes.
