The Case Against Standardized Testing: Raising the Scores, Ruining the Schools

14 reviews
Alfie Kohn

Heinemann, 2000

A focused indictment of the obsession with standards.
It has been asserted with regard to this book that the author was never a teacher and has no qualifications. That's not true. In fact, the bio on the back of this very book reads, "A former teacher, Kohn now works with educators across the country and speaks regularily at national conferences." It has also been asserted that Kohn offers no alternatives. The chapter of this book beginning on ...

Jerry, Ph.D. Bobrow

Cliffs Notes, 1985

An absolute must if you are preparing for the GRE yourself
This book is the first that I have encountered that can actually TEACH me math. All of the others that have tried have just gave me a headache. It starts with the most basic concepts and works its way into the more complex. If you are preparing for the GRE or SAT yourself, this book is worth way more than what you'll pay for it on Amazon. Without it, I would have been completely, utterly, ...

A Teacher's Guide to Standardized Reading Tests : Knowledge
Standardized testing got you down? Here is a fresh way to approach the task of test prep. Using 'Strategy' work (as taught in Strategies That Work, and Mosaic of Thought) and investigative work into what students are thinking, Ms. Calkin treats 'test taking' as a genre. I used her approach this year, and found it flowed seamlessly into our Reader's Workshop 'Strategy' investigations.

Gardner's Rolling Stone
Fortunately for readers (and anyone connected to education), Gardner has not been idle since he first published his benchmark book Frames of Mind.

Along with Postman, Kohn, Ravitch, Darling-Hammond, Allen, ...
