Hundreds of thousands of California students won't take statewide standardized tests this spring


Hundreds of thousands of California students this spring will not be taking the state’s annual Smarter Balanced standardized tests, an EdSource survey of the state’s largest districts shows.
The Smarter Balanced tests are aligned with the Common Core state standards for English language arts and math and are required by state and federal law each spring. Federal education officials in February told states that they must measure student progress this year, after waiving testing requirements in spring 2020 when Covid-19 caused school closures across the country.
Now, as California lags behind many states in reopening schools for in-person instruction, school districts are moving ahead with a wide range of plans to measure academic progress during the pandemic. ....

That’s the record that Miguel Cardona, Connecticut’s first Latino commissioner of education, would bring to the highest education office in the country, as multiple news reports say the Biden-Harris administration plans to name him as its nominee for Secretary of Education. (Update: The incoming administration has announced Cardona as the nominee.)
If confirmed by the Senate, Cardona will hit the ground running. President-elect Biden has pledged to reopen schools within the first 100 days of his administration. (That would be by April 30, 2021.) That means, among many things, taking stock of the damage caused by long-term school closures, and creating plans for reopening amid steep budget cuts, increased costs for safety measures, and widening achievement gaps and learning loss that have hit low- ....

News - Should "performance-based" tests be mandated?*


December 15, 2020
Many educators who think they are “reformers” would like performance-based tests
Parents are being told that the first big issue for a new Secretary of Education in the Biden administration is deciding whether schools should test or not test students in 2020.  However, a much bigger issue is whether schools should continue to give Common Core-aligned tests (once national testing using Common Core-aligned tests resumes, as it is likely to do, in the absence of another form of accountability for USED and the states to use) or switch to “performance-based” tests.
Many educators who think they are “reformers” would like performance-based tests. They are encouraging other educators to “rethink” accountability “by replacing high-stakes exams with performance-based assessments.” So, if Congress decides to eliminate the tests now given (which are all aligned to Common Core’s standards), schools will still have to give tests based on ....
