Thoughts from Kansas : Setting an agenda

  • Item 3: Reform No Child Left Behind. An underfunded program that overemphasizes standardized tests might improve some educational metrics (though it hasn't yet). What it won't do is create a truly educated populace. Education is more than just a set of factoids, it's a way of approaching knowledge and lack of knowledge. Good education infects students with a craving for new understanding. Furthermore, there's an odd illogic in using student test scores to judge teacher quality. We know that small changes in experiences early education can have dramatic consequences on how a student approaches learning throughout her life, but NCLB judges a teacher on the basis of student performance in only one year, without regard to those students' past experiences.
