cursive writing, they will not know how to read cursive and they can write notes about someone. To start with schools might waste so much time on their students trying to right cursive and then they might not be paying attention and they could have a test on it and get an f. They could write a message about someone in cursive and they do not know how to read it and it could say…

the white students. Districts and schools were no longer allowed to solely rely on the achievement of high performing students to establish failure or success (Ladson-Billings, 2006). The administration dictates districts and schools to disaggregate test information for all subgroups and students within the school and make sure that each group is able to meet the required standard (Norman et al., 2001). The issue of achievement gap is a mystifying one for districts and schools within the United…

States tests it’s students has changed many times since the beginning of public schooling and education. Nowadays, America uses a method known as “standardized testing”. A standardized test requires two key components: all test takers are required to answer the same questions, and all the tests are standard in the sense that they can all be easily compared to compile data. Some examples of these types of standardized tests are achievement based tests, aptitude tests, college-admissions tests,…

on that test we took today? I'm talking about below proficient, so less than an 80. I will be honest and say I scored less than an 80. I hate tests for many reasons, but the one you won't find on this post is if I do bad on them. Hating tests because of the fact you don't do well isn't a reason (or a very good one at that). Tests are one of the worst ways of demonstrating a student's knowledge. Well actually, let me rephrase. I hate standardized tests.What is a Standardized test? A test that is…

Research Proposal for a Paper, “Standardized Brain” Overview of the Project: All students, starting from a young age, will experience and have to complete standardized tests at some point in their academic career. This starts in grade school and does not end until graduation from high school, and even then some students may still have to take one while in college. Standardized testing has been a hot button topic recently in education and has racked up numerous controversies over the years -…

other hand, I’m not sure if homework is completely unnecessary. I agree that that homework isn’t as vital as it’s thought to be, a point that needs emphasizing since so many people still believe that “If our students don't do lots of homework, their test scores will never be competitive internationally” (Kralovec, Buell). The essay states that “...the 1995 Third International Math and Science Study (TIMSS) found that 8th graders in Japan and Germany are assigned less homework but still…

students admitted to cheating on a test, 58 percent admitted to plagiarism and 95 percent said they participated in some form of cheating, whether it was on a test, plagiarism or copying homework. I personally think that cheating is a stupid idea. Building good srudy habits is the best thing you can do right now. We all know how great it feels to have just done good on a test after studying hard. You don’t even feel that rush of excitement after getting an A on a test that you cheated on. I do…

you choose to find it is your choice. Brilliance can be shown in many things such as school and testing or sports and everyday life. In school brilliance is shown through understanding material and Testing, such as the ACT and SAT. Brilliance can be assumed through these tests just by the scores and the percentiles individuals fall into. In athletics the brilliance is harder to achieve or be recognized. It is a different brilliance than school because instead of just cognitive brilliance…

students are passing these tests, however if the students do not pass, the school would be endangered of closing. Schools receive government funds due to their performance on standardized testing, therefore, they reduce “recess” time. Lacking daily exercise can significantly decrease students’ social, emotional, and academic well-being, causing the school to…
