State standardized testing have been apart of American education from 1800's but maybe its time for change,
Also standardized testing has not improved or increased standardized testing. How? in 2002 when the now child left behind act came into place the United states increased from 18th position to 31st position in the world on the programme for international student assessment and a similar drop in science but no problem in reading. Standardized test are an unreliable measure of student performance, A study in 2001 by Brookings Institution found 50-80% of year and year test score improvements had nothing to do with long-term changes in learning but was cause by fluctuations.
Please change the system of standardized test for students of America!
