Students sitting for their STAAR exams this week will be part of a new method of evaluating Texas schools: Their written answers on the state’s standardized tests will be graded
The Texas Education Agency changed a lot about the state’s standardized test over the past couple years. Researchers and teachers worry the new approach to writing could kill creativity, but the TEA argues it better reflects how learning happens in class.
25% of written responses will be graded by a human, and the rest will be graded by an automated scoring engine.
Houston ISD school ratings based on STAAR testing sent campuses with "B" or higher grades plummeting to failing scores under new TEA guidelines.
